Abstract
The Converse run-time framework was designed with dual objectives:
that of supporting quick development of portable run-time systems
for new parallel programming paradigms, and that of permitting
interoperability between multi-paradigm modules in a single
application. This paper reports on the refinements made to the
original Converse model since its inception almost two years ago,
and assesses our experience in using Converse to satisfy the above
objectives. A brief overview of the motivation and overall design
of Converse is included for completeness. Extensions and
refinements in Converse are discussed along with the reasons for
their inclusion. Several languages/paradigms were implemented using
Converse; techniques used in these implementations and our
experience with specific features of Converse used in them are
discussed. A major multilingual multi-paradigm parallel application
developed within the Converse framework is described.
