OpenMP
Shared-memory Parallelism for Fortran, C and C++
The OpenMP Application Program Interface (API) supports multi-platform shared-memory parallel programming in C/C++ and Fortran on all architectures, including Unix platforms and Windows platforms. Jointly defined by a group of major computer hardware and software vendors including The Portland Group, OpenMP is a portable, scalable model that gives shared-memory parallel programmers a simple and flexible interface for developing parallel applications for platforms ranging from the desktop to the supercomputer.
The Portland Group has selected for you some useful information on the OpenMP initiative.
