Workstation Compilers
Absoft's workstation solutions include Fortran 95 compilers for 32-bit Linux and 64-bit Linux, the Fx2 Debugging Solution for Linux, various programming tools, optional Mathematical and Statistical libraries and the VAST pre-processor for automatically vectorizing and parallelizing code to improve performance. Absoft·s Fortran 95 compilers for 32-bit Linux and for 64-bit Linux combine f77/f95 compilers with the Fx2 Debugging Solution providing programmers with the most advanced Fortran debugging solution on the market today.
Absoft's desktop solutions include Fortran, C/C++ compilers and programming tools along with optional Mathematical and Statistical libraries , Numercial and Visualization libraries , and the VAST pre-processor for automatically vectorizing or parallelizing code to improve performance. The Pro Fortran compiler suite for Macintosh OS X and Pro Fortran for Windows both combine f77, f95 and C/C++ compilers with a powerful, easy-to-use Integrated Development Environment and the Fx2 Debugger allowing programmers the versatility of a GUI interface with advanced programming tools. In a special OEM-partnership Absoft is able to offer IBM's XL Fortran and XL C/C++ for Macintosh OS X which are bundled at no additional cost with the Fx2 debugger.
Absoft offers Fortran compiler tool kits for Linux-based clusters built with processors from Intel, AMD and IBM’s Power/PowerPC architecture. In a special OEM-partnership Absoft is able to offer IBM's XL Fortran and XL C/C++ for IBM’s Linux on Power™. Absoft also offers the High Performance Computing Software Development Kit (HPC SDK) for developers on clusters using IBM’s Linux on Power™. In addition to the Fortran compilers, cluster licenses include a copy of the Beowulf Tool Kit CD. The Beowulf Tool Kit includes pre-built Message-Passing-Interface (MPI) libraries (MPICH) plus MPI/Fortran documentation and implementation notes designed to help easily configure multi-user Beowulf MPI systems.
Absoft Fortran products are used by Fortune 2000 companies, National Research Facilities, leading Universities, and Government and Military installations world-wide.
