“…The transformation approach can be realized by a compiler tool and is suitable for statically known module structures. Different recent realizations of the specification mechanism have been proposed in [28] and [41]. For dynamically growing and varying modular structures, however, support at runtime is required which is provided by the runtime library Tlib for multiprocessor task programming.…”

Applications from science and engineering disciplines make extensive use of computer simulations and the steady increase in size and detail leads to growing computational costs. Computational resources can be provided by modern parallel hardware platforms which nowadays are usually cluster systems. Effective exploitation of cluster systems requires load balancing and locality of reference in order to avoid extensive communication. But new sophisticated modeling techniques lead to application algorithms with varying computational effort in space and time, which may be input dependent or may evolve with the computation itself. Such applications are called irregular. Because of the characteristics of irregular algorithms, efficient parallel implementations are difficult to achieve since the distribution of work and data cannot be determined a priori. However, suitable parallel programming models and libraries for structuring, scheduling, load balancing, coordination, and communication can support the design of efficient and scalable parallel implementations.
