Abstract A high-level language for array and vector processors is analyzed by the methods of denotational semantics. The analysis leads to the identification of a set of primitives suitable for the portable programming of array and vector processors. Discussion of the primitives includes consideration of the efficiency with which they may be implemented on different machines, and their possible application to portable programming, the design of intermeiate languages, and the design of future array and vector processors.
