Abstract

This paper presents the result of a study in which we examined about 50 massively parallel programming languages in order to detect typical approaches towards supporting parallelism. Based on classification into nine classes, semantic properties affeccting the development of parallel programs are compared. From a consideration of the general function of programming languages in software engineering, we derive basic requirements on parallel languages.
