چکیده
Published by the IEEE Computer Society 0018-9162/09/$26.00 © 2009 IEEE existing codes. In parallel scripting, users apply parallel composition constructs to existing sequential or parallel programs. With such methods, programmers can quickly specify highly parallel applications that may, depending on problem scale, require for their execution a 16-core workstation, a 16,000-core cluster, or a 160,000-core petascale system. Understanding how to scale scripting to 21st-century computers should thus be a priority for researchers of next-generation parallel programming models. In addressing this priority, we have focused on parallel scripting for systems such as the IBM Blue Gene/P (BG/P) and Sun Constellation.

Scientific programming with an environment that combines effectively compiled and interpreted scripting at the Java platform
The jLab environment extends the potential of Java for scientific computing. It provides a Matlab/Scilab like scripting language that is executed by an interpreter implemented in the Java language. The scripting language supports the basic programming constructs with Matlab like matrix manipulation operators. The jLab "core" provides the general purpose functionality with an extensive set of bu...
متن کاملEfficient Data Mining: Scripting and Scalable Parallel Algorithms
This paper presents our approach to data mining that allows the coupling of parallel applications with a scripting language resulting in an efficient and flexible toolbox. Parallel algorithms which are scalable both in data size and number of processors are a key issue to be able to solve the ever increasing problems in data mining. On the other hand, data mining applications should be flexible...
متن کاملTransparent runtime parallelization of the R scripting language
Scripting languages such as R and Matlab are widely used in scientific data processing. As the data volume and the complexity of analysis tasks both grow, sequential data processing using these tools often becomes the bottleneck in scientific workflows. We describe pR, a runtime framework for automatic and transparent parallelization of the popular R language used in statistical computing. Reco...

متن کاملGPU Scripting and Code Generation with PyCUDA
High-level scripting languages are in many ways polar opposites to GPUs. GPUs are highly parallel, subject to hardware subtleties, and designed for maximum throughput, and they offer a tremendous advance in the performance achievable for a significant number of computational problems. On the other hand, scripting languages such as Python favor ease of use over computational speed and do not gen...
