After FORTRAN, what?

Parametric Fortran - A Program Generator for Customized Generic Fortran Extensions

We describe the design and implementation of a program generator that can produce extensions of Fortran that are specialized to support the programming of particular applications. Extensions are specified through parameter structures that can be referred to in Fortran programs to specify the dependency of program parts on these parameters. By providing parameter values, a parameterized Fortran ...

A Comparison of Bsp Fortran and Distributed Fortran 90

Is Fortran Still Relevant? Comparing Fortran with Java and C++

This paper 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 extensions in the years 2003 and 2008. (1) How much have these extensions made Fortran comparable to Java and C++? (2) What are the differences and similarities, in supporting features like: Templates, object constructors ...

What Next after Anonymity?

In recent years, interest has shifted from protecting the confidentiality of data to protecting the confidentiality of metadata. The police often learn more from traffic analysis than from content interception; thus anonymity becomes more important than confidentiality in the classical sense. Many researchers have been working with systems such as remailers and Tor in order to provide anonymity...
