The Global Arrays (GA) toolkit provides a shared memory style programming
|
|
environment in the context of distributed array data structures (called
|
|
"global arrays"). From the user perspective, a global array can be used
|
|
as if it was stored in shared memory. All details of the data distribution,
|
|
addressing, and data access are encapsulated in the global array objects.
|
|
Information about the actual data distribution and locality can be easily
|
|
obtained and taken advantage of whenever data locality is important. The
|
|
primary target architectures for which GA was developed are massively-parallel
|
|
distributed-memory and scalable shared-memory systems.
