Cilk is a language for multithreaded parallel programming based on ANSI C. Cilk is designed for general-purpose parallel programming, but it is especially effective for exploiting dynamic, highly asynchronous parallelism, which can be difficult to write in data-parallel or message-passing style. Cilk has been developed since 1994 by the Supercomputing Technologies Group at the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science. Cilk has been used for research, teaching, and for coding applications such as a virus shell assembly simulator and three chess programs.
