[ptp-dev] OpenMP tools

[Craig Rasmussen <crasmussen@xxxxxxxx>]

Beth,

I had a conversation with some our users this week and they were  
interested in OpenMP.  What are you all thinking of in terms of  
OpenMP.  Do you plan on static analysis tools to look at loop  
dependencies so that loops could be parallelized?  Surprisingly (to  
me at least) they seemed interested in this.  I think they are  
interested in minor speedups over serial code (say times 2) if they  
threw a few processors at their application.

I'm also interested in data dependency analysis in general so if you  
have designs in that area please speak up.

Happy Holidays to all,
Craig
