Supporting high level programming with high performance: the Illinois Concert system

Abstract
Programmers of concurrent applications are faced with a complex performance space in which data distribution and concurrency management exacerbate the difficulty of building large, complex applications. To address these challenges, the Illinois Concert system provides a global namespace, implicit concurrency control and granularity management, implicit storage management, and object-oriented programming features. These features are embodied in a language ICC++ (derived from C++) which has been used to build a number of kernels and applications.
