Co-array Python: A Parallel Extension to the Python Language
نویسندگان
چکیده
A parallel extension to the Python language is introduced that is modeled after the Co-Array Fortran extensions to Fortran 95. A new Python module, CoArray, has been developed to provide co-array syntax that allows a Python programmer to address co-array data on a remote processor. An example of Jacobi iteration using the CoArray module is shown and corresponding performance results are presented.

On the performance of the Python programming language for serial and parallel scientific computations
This article addresses the performance of scientific applications that use the Python programming language. First, we investigate several techniques for improving the computational efficiency of serial Python codes. Then, we discuss the basic programming techniques in Python for parallelizing serial scientific applications. It is shown that an efficient implementation of the array-related opera...
متن کاملMPI for Python
This document describes the MPI for Python package. MPI for Python provides bindings of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard for the Python programming language, allowing any Python program to exploit multiple processors. This package is constructed on top of the MPI-1/2 specifications and provides an object oriented interface which closely follows MPI-2 C++ bindings. It supports point-...
متن کاملunPython: Converting Python Numerical Programs into C
unPython is a Python-to-C compiler intended for numerical Python programs. The compiler takes as input type-annotated Python source and produces C source code for an equivalent extension module. The compiler is NumPy-aware and can convert most NumPy indexing or slicing operations into C array accesses. Furthermore the compiler also allows annotating certain for-loops as parallel and can generat...
متن کاملHardware Transactional Memory Support for Lightweight Dynamic Language Evolution
Lightweight dynamic language runtimes have become popular in part because they simply integrate with a wide range of native code libraries and embedding applications. However, further development of these runtimes in the areas of concurrency, efficiency and safety is impeded by the desire to maintain their native code interfaces, even at a source level. Native extension modules’ lack of thread ...
متن کاملInRaDoS: An internal radiation dosimetry computer program
Introduction: Internal radiation dosimetry is important from a radiation protection point of view and can help to optimize the radiation dose delivered to the workers, public, and patients. It has a rather simple protocol but needs a large amount of data. Therefore, it is difficult to do on a routine basis. The use of computer programs makes internal radiation dosimetry simpler...
