Illinois Concert C++

ICC++ is a high performance dialect of C++ which supports for parallel computation on shared memory and distributed memory machines. ICC++'s design enables:

a single source program for sequential and parallel versions,
efficient execution across a range of parallelism (uniprocessors to symmetric multiprocessors to large scale MPP's),
and an object-oriented programming style (fine-grained data structures and concurrency) which supports a wide variety of irregular and regular parallel applications.

The following information is available for ICC++:

ICC++ -- A C++ Dialect for High Performance Parallel Computing to appear in the Second International Symposium on Object Technologies for Advanced Software, (ISOTAS '96).
Programmer's Reference Manual (under revision)
Language Definition

The ISOTAS '96 paper describes the language and illustrates its key features. The programmer's reference manual is a more extensive exposition of the language and covers all of its features. The language definition document is a more formal (and terse) definition of the concurrency features (and their semantics) in ICC++.
