Abstract

ALI (A Language Interface) is a software package which translates simulation models expressed in one of the higher-level languages, C5SL-IV or ACSL, into sequences of instructions for each processor of a network of microprocessors. The partitioning of the source program among the processors is automatically accomplished. The code is converted into a data flow graph, analyzed and divided among the processors to minimize the overall execution time in the presence of interprocessor communication delays. This paper describes ALI from the user's point of view and in cludes a detailed example of the application of ALI to a specific dynamic system simulation.
