Multidisciplinary applications language

Opus "provides a set of Fortran language extensions that allow for integrated support of task and data parallelism. It also provides shared data abstractions (SDAs) as a method for communication and synchronization among these tasks... The language-independent portion of the runtime system supports lightweight threads across multiple address spaces, and is built upon existing lightweight thread and communication systems. The language-dependent portion of the runtime system supports conditional invocation of SDA methods and distributed SDA argument handling"
