| Abstract | PRESTO is a set of tools for building parallel programming systems on shared-memory mul-tiprocessors. PRESTO’s goal is to provide a framework within which one can easily build efficient support for any of a wide variety of “models ” of parallel programming. PRESTO is designed for easy modification and extension, not only at the level of the primitives and struc-tures made available for the application programmer’s use, but also at the level of the run-time kernel that supports parallel applications. PRESTO is implemented in the object-oriented language C++ on a Sequent Balance 21000 and has been used in a number of applications that are described in this paper. 1. |
