Abstract

Because of the lack of the software tools to assist with concurrent programming, programming for parallel computers has been a significant technical problem for a diverse range of users. We are concentrating on techniques that allow computing and non-computing experts to define what they need and then automatically generate the specified visual language. Consequently, our visual language research aims at the development of a test bed for conducting experiments in language design and speeding up the implementation process for tools to assist in parallel computing
