The MC# 2.0 system for concurrent and distributed programming
Keywords:
Abstract
The MC# language is a general-purpose high-level language designed to create codes for all types of parallel architectures: multicore processors, clusters, and Grid-systems. The basic ideas and some specific features of MC# are considered. The key distinctions of the MC# 2.0 programming system from its previous version and the multithreaded programming in the framework of this system are discussed. A survey of the MC# Grid System as a tool to support the MC#-program execution in Grid-networks is given. An experience of using Povray-based distributed rendering applications under the MC# Grid System is described. Several directions for future work are formulated and a brief description of educational uses of MC# is presented. A preliminary version of this paper was published in the Proceedings of the Conference on Scientific Service in the Internet ( http://agora.guru.ru/abrau2007 ).
