Parallel programming with XL Fortran
Parallel programming with XL Fortran involves a combination of compiling, setting of runtime options, and optimization of your code, by incorporating SMP directives and by using the pthreads library module.
XL Fortran supports the OpenMP specification, as understood and interpreted by IBM as well as the POSIX 1003.1-1996 standard.
Note: IBM implementation
of OpenMP in XL Fortran is
an extension to the standard Fortran language.
