....on the Cray. This presents the question: If we are forced to rewrite FORTRAN programs into vector form anyway, why not write them in a language that permits explicit specification of vector operations, while still maintaining the flavor of FORTRAN Many such languages have been proposed. VECTRAN [27, 28] is one of the earliest and most influential of such proposals, although there have been numerous others [7, 12, 34] In fact, it seems clear that the next ANSI standard for FORTRAN, which we shall refer to as FORTRAN 8x, will contain explicit vector operations like those in VECTRAN [5, 26] ....
