Abstract :
Presents a model of parallel computation, the parameterized task graph, which is a compact, problem-size-independent representation of some frequently-used directed acylic task graphs. Techniques for automating the construction of such a representation, starting from an annotated sequential program, are proposed. We show how to represent the computational load for each node and the communication volume for each edge in a problem-size-independent way. Lastly, we describe related work and techniques required in order to generate local data structures, computation code and communication code
