Abstract :
The authors are developing a Fortran 90D compiler, which converts Fortran 90D code into Fortran 77 plus message passing node programs for distributed memory machines. The authors present the implementation and performance results of Fortran 90D intrinsic functions on the Intel iPSC/860 hypercube. They have implemented several Fortran 90D intrinsic functions so that they can be called from the node programs of a distributed memory machine. The implementations are scalable, portable and architecture independent
