MP Enhancements
The MIPSpro 64-bit Fortran MP I/O library has been enhanced to allow I/O from parallel regions. In other words, multiple threads can read and write to different files as well as read and write to the same file. The latter case, of course, encounters normal overhead due to file locking.
The MIPSpro 64-bit compilers also have been enhanced to allow parallel C and parallel Fortran programs to share a common runtime. This allows you to link parallel C routines with parallel Fortran routines and have a single master. Figure 1-2 illustrates this.
