All Parallel and Distributed Programming Languages

Languages and models built for programs that run on many processors or on many machines at once. Chapel is a parallel language created by Cray as part of its Cascade project for high-productivity computing, Limbo was written for building distributed systems and is the language used for applications on the Inferno operating system, and Linda is a coordination model that supports communication among computational activities in parallel computing environments when it is used beside a language such as Fortran or C.
