Greetings to you all!

Having read a book about compiler directives that ease the task of
parallelizing an application on SGI-SMP-systems, I wonder
whether there is a standardized or commonly agreed upon set of these
compiler directives (for C and FORTRAN)?!

If there is such a standard, please point me to the standards document!

(The directives I'm talking about specify e.g. that the following loop
is to be executed in parallel, which variables should be local to the
processors and which should be shared, or that a piece of code in a parallel
region ought to be executed by one processor only, ...)

	Thank you very much for your efforts,
	Gerald
