GPU accelerated supercomputing is not a new phenomenon with many high performance computing codes already primed to run on Nvidia hardware in particular. However, for some legacy codes with special ...

Who would have thought that a computer programming language developed in the mid 1950’s would still be in use in the era of petaflop systems ? The fact that a programming language has been in use for ...

“I don't know what the language of the year 2000 will look like, but I know it will be called Fortran.” —Tony Hoare, winner of the 1980 Turing Award, in 1982. Take a tour through the research ...

Back in the dawn of time, which is four decades ago in computer science and which was before technical computing went mainstream with the advent of Unix workstations and their beefy server cousins, ...

Advances in science and engineering still rely on Fortran more than any other language by many important measures. Surprised? You shouldn’t be, although many people who call themselves programmers ...
