Research at IFPC

Research Agenda

The IFPC's internal research has focused on techniques to aid the effective application of parallel machines. This has involved work in:

Parallel Software Technology
This area seeks to develop techniques that will enable parallel applications to be constructed and mapped onto parallel computers effectively and efficiently without end users having to be over concerned with the complexities of low level programming.
Parallel Business Computing
This area seeks to provide methods and algorithms that will exploit the power of parallel machines to combine considerable analytical and optimisation power with parallel database technology supporting large scale data storage and retrieval capacity to develop sophisticated decision support and business modelling capabilities.
