TL;DR: SimOS is a simulation environment capable of modeling complete computer systems, including a full operating system and all application programs that run on top of it and provides substantial flexibility in the tradeoff between simulation speed and detail.
Abstract: SimOS is a simulation environment capable of modeling complete computer systems, including a full operating system and all application programs that run on top of it. Two features help make this possible. First, SimOS provides an extremely fast simulation of system hardware, and the second feature that enables SimOS to model the full operating system is its ability to control the level of simulation detail. Designed for efficient and accurate study of both uniprocessor and multiprocessor systems, SimOS simulates computer hardware in enough detail to run an entire operating system and provides substantial flexibility in the tradeoff between simulation speed and detail. >

TL;DR: The High Performance Fortran Forum (HPFF) as discussed by the authors was a coalition of computer vendors, government laboratories, and academic groups founded in 1992 to improve the performance and usability of Fortran-90 for computationally intensive applications on a wide variety of machines, including massively parallel single-instruction multiple-data (SIMD) and MIMD systems and vector processors.
Abstract: Fortran-90, its basis in Fortran-77, its implications for parallel machines, and the extensions developed for it by the High Performance Fortran Forum (HPFF), a coalition of computer vendors, government laboratories, and academic groups founded in 1992 to improve the performance and usability of Fortran-90 for computationally intensive applications on a wide variety of machines, including massively parallel single-instruction multiple-data (SIMD) and multiple-instruction multiple-data (MIMD) systems and vector processors, are discussed. SIMD and MIMD systems, previous attempts to develop languages for them, the genesis of the HPFF, how the group actually worked, and the HPF programming model are described. >
