	High Performance Fortran
HPF

    (HPF) A data parallel language extension to
   Fortran 90 which provides a portable programming interface
   for a wide variety of target platforms.  The original HPF
   language specification was produced by the High Performance
   Fortran Forum, a broad consortium of industry and academia,
   which met regularly throughout 1992 and early 1993.  HPF
   compilers are now available on most commonly-used computing
   systems, and users are beginning to gain first hand experience
   with this language.  The Forum has continued to meet in order
   to address advanced topics.
