In the execution of an application program on different computers of a parallel-computer system, the problem is encountered that a process running on the one computer requires a data item which is generated by another computer in a parallel-running process. To avoid having to determine during the running of the program for each instruction containing an access to a data item whether this data item is determined in a parallel process, the commands which give access to a data item which either has already been calculated in the current process or is present at the time of access in an already calculated form in a parallel process are tagged during compiling of the application program. The execution of these commands is carried out in the same way as in the sequential case.
A method of processing an application program on a parallel-computer system, comprising the steps of:
