ParaWise generates a parallel FORTRAN 77, FORTRAN 90 or FORTRAN 95 code very similar to the original serial code but with communication calls inserted and modifications to the code that will allow it to run on a parallel processing system. Using the ParaWise browsers, information is provided at every stage to help the user understand what has been done. The browsers also allow the user to make modifications at any stage to improve the parallel code produced.

ParaWise has also been extended by NASA Ames (in collaboration with PSP) to generate Shared Memory directive code using OpenMP. For further details visit the ParaWise-based Automatic Parallelizer using OpenMP (CAPO) page.

You probably want to know if ParaWise works! Take a look at just some of the results that have been obtained by users of ParaWise . There are examples of performance results for parallel code generated with Message Passing and OpenMP. There are also some results for a hybrid mix of Message Passing and OpenMP.
