This approach allows development of portable and standardized parallel software on different parallel architectures, from SIMD machines to distributed-memory MIMD computers. The goal of this special issue is to address theoretical and practical issues in architecture-independent programming models, languages, and tools for parallel processing, present software engineering techniques in parallel programming, and report experiences in real-life applications using either new high-level languages or architecture-independent software environments. Further, this theme issue aims to improve the knowledge of the user community about parallel software development tools and provide innovative ideas on practical high-level programming of high-performance computers. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: o Architecture-independent programming models for parallel processing; o Comparison of languages and tools for parallel software con- struction; o High-level software paradigms for parallel processing; o Applications of architecture-independent parallel software tools; o Environments and tools for management of parallel software; o New high-performance environments and programming tools; o Practical ideas and software engineering techniques in par- allel programming; o Case Studies - success as well as failure stories. Papers should report innovative ideas and practical results in real- life applications; they should include evaluations through analy- sis, simulation and experiments possibly on different parallel plat- forms.
