Not so long ago, there was a question whether exascale supercomputers would be built from a very large number of thin nodes containing only modest amounts of parallelism or a smaller number of fat ...

In this paper, the authors presents a comparative study to evaluate and compare Fortran with the two most popular programming languages Java and C++. Fortran has gone through major and minor ...

I learned to program FORTRAN IV in the spring of 1968 while working as an engineering technician in water resources. One of the engineers knew of my interest in computers and asked if I would like to ...

In our look at scientific computing and the continued longevity of Fortran in science and engineering circles, one of the recurring themes in the discussion that followed was performance. One of the ...

Absoft Corp. announced at this week’s Supercomputing 2004 Conference the release of new tools for its IBM XL Fortran Advanced Edition and IBM XL C/C++ Advanced Edition compilers running on Mac OS X.

Fortran is an old programming language, but it specializes in advanced calculations and may still be used in physics departments, supercomputer research institutes, government agencies, etc. as of ...

FORTRAN started out as IBM's' Mathematical Formula Translating System. It was designed by a team led by John Backus and targeted computationally intensive applications from physics to weather ...

Doesn't g77 have an option to compile to object code ('-c' perhaps)? Then all you have to do is link the objects together as usual. Assuming you've all ready handled issues like calling conventions in ...
