Many natural language processing tasks benefit from long inputs, but processing long documents with Transformers is expensive -- not only due to quadratic attention complexity but also from applying feedforward and projection layers to…

C is the lingua franca of programming and almost any device can be programmed using C. However, programming mod-ern heterogeneous architectures such as multi-core CPUs and GPUs requires explicitly expressing parallelism as well as…

Multi-dimensional arrays are ubiquitous in high-performance computing (HPC), but their absence from the C++ language standard is a long-standing and well-known limitation of their use for HPC. This paper describes the design and…

We introduce bindings that enable the convenient, efficient, and reliable use of software modules of CGAL (Computational Geometry Algorithm Library), which are written in C++, from within code written in Python. There are different tools…

To design a Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) is a onerous job which requires a good understanding of all the main parameters and the relevant calculations. Up to the present there are only a few software packages performing this task in a…

The usefulness of generating random configurations is recognized in many areas of knowledge. Fortran was born for scientific computing and has been one of the main programming languages in this area since then. And several ongoing projects…

In this paper, we introduce a new task for code completion that focuses on handling long code input and propose a sparse Transformer model, called LongCoder, to address this task. LongCoder employs a sliding window mechanism for…

This paper describes a user-friendly frontend to a Fortran program that integrates coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The user interface is built using the NeXTstep Interface Builder, together with a public-domain graphical…

We present the design and performance analysis of a new integrated track reconstruction code developed for the STAR experiment at RHIC. The code is meant to replace multiple previous tracking codes written in FORTRAN many years ago, and to…

Detecting software vulnerabilities is critical to ensuring the security and reliability of modern computer systems. Deep neural networks have shown promising results on vulnerability detection, but they lack the capability to capture global…

Branch cuts in complex functions in combination with signed zero and signed infinity have important uses in fracture mechanics, jet flow and aerofoil analysis. We present benchmarks for validating Fortran 2008 complex functions - LOG, SQRT,…

Using standard components of modern Fortran we present a technique to dynamically generate strings with as little coding overhead as possible on the application side. Additionally we demonstrate how this can be extended to allow for output…

Iterators are a fundamental programming abstraction for traversing and modifying elements in containers in mainstream imperative languages such as C++. Iterators provide a uniform access mechanism that hides low-level implementation details…

This article discusses an efficient implementation of tensors of arbitrary rank by using some of the idioms introduced by the recently published C++ ISO Standard (C++11). With the aims at providing a basic building block for…

The R programming language is widely used in large-scale data analyses. It contains especially rich built-in support for dealing with vectors, arrays, and matrices. These operations feature prominently in the applications that form R's…

The heart of every Monte Carlo simulation is a source of high quality random numbers and the generator has to be picked carefully. Since the ``Ferrenberg affair'' it is known to a broad community that statistical tests alone do not suffice…

Translating C to Rust is a promising way to enhance the reliability of legacy system programs. Although the industry has developed an automatic C-to-Rust translator, C2Rust, its translation remains unsatisfactory. One major reason is that…

The Message-Passing Interface (MPI) and C++ form the backbone of high-performance computing, but MPI only provides C and Fortran bindings. While this offers great language interoperability, high-level programming languages like C++ make…

Some recent processors are not equipped with an integer division unit. Compilers then implement division by a call to a special function supplied by the processor designers, which implements division by a loop producing one bit of quotient…

Datacenter applications often rely on remote procedure calls (RPCs) for fast, efficient, and secure communication. However, RPCs are slow, inefficient, and hard to use as they require expensive serialization and compression to communicate…
