An Introduction to FORTRAN Programming for the Advanced Scientific Computer

Abstract

The purpose of this report is to provide NRL research staff members with a brief, unified introduction to the Advanced Scientific Computer (ASC). It is written from the viewpoint of a research scientist (the user) who knows FORTRAN programming but who is not familiar with the complexities of the ASC and its Job Specification Language (JSL). It is intended to provide the simplest procedures necessary to get on the machine, run FORTRAN programs, and get answers. All of the procedures in this report have been used successfully by the authors. The programming consultants of the Research Computation Center contributed most of the information in this report. They are available to provide more detailed information than is given in this summary.
