A procedural programming language developed by Thomas Braeunl <braunl@ee.uwa.edu.au> at the university of stuttgart. It is based on modula-2, but extended for data parallel (simd) programming. The main approach for machine independent parallel programming is to include a description of the virtual parallel machine with each parallel algorithm.

There is a simulator and x window system-based profiler for workstations, macintosh, and ibm pc.

Version 2.0 runs on mp-1, cm-2, sun-3, sun-4, decstation, hp 700, rs/6000.
