Products High Performance Fortran Compilers, for Single & Multi-Core Systems Absoft Fortran represents the highest performing 64-bit compiler available for HPC, Linux, Windows and MacOS environments. Utilising Cray/SGI technology and advanced optimisations tuned for the individual high performance features of the Advanced Micro Devices AMD64 and Intel Xeon EM64T single and multi-core processors, Absoft assures you of maximum performance with either processor. Fourteen years of product evolution and world-wide testing ensure maximum reliability and robust operation. Absoft compilers support 64-bit or 32-bit code generation, are fully compatible with gnu tool chain or system tools in their respective native environment. Absoft Fortran includes the industry's only Fortran IDE for simplified code development. The Absoft IDE, designed for Fortran and C includes: Fx3, the leading graphical Fortran/C debugger; programmer's editor; prebuilt math libraries; VAX/Unix libraries; 2D/3D & HDF5 graphics; comprehensive documentation with examples and FREE technical support. The Absoft IDE is bundled with all Pro Fortran products and provides a common feature set and native look and feel across Linux, Windows and MacOS. The MRWE application framework (programmable I/O window) is included on versions for Windows and MacOS. Compare the Absoft feature set with any competitive product.

Absoft Pro Fortran Compiler Suite editions

• Windows: Faster code on Win32 and Win64. Independent tests confirm Absoft's new v10.1 compiler technology generates faster code on x86 and x64 AMD and Intel processors. Choose the configuration right for you: Pro FortranMP for multi-core systems, or Pro Fortran for single CPU systems. Easy to install and nothing else to buy or configure. FREE personal home use license included. Win2K, XP, Vista and CCS 2003 compatible.
  
  Includes the only IDE designed for Fortran. Absoft simplifies code development by solving the problems associated with IDEs such as Visual Studio and Xcode - excellent for C++, but with no knowledge of Fortran. The Absoft IDE supports both Fortran and C and automatically provides proper syntax sensitivity, array indexing, etc. for each language. It includes everything you need: F95 compilers, programmer's editor, Fx3 graphical debugger, application framework, graphics and optimised math libraries in a single, easy-to-use package.
   
• MacOS/Intel: Absoft Pro Fortran v10 is the most complete Fortran solution for Mac OS/Intel. Installs and runs on either Tiger or Leopard and provides superior performance in both 32-bit and 64-bit mode. Bundled with every Pro Fortran is; a complete Integrated Development Environment (IDE) with programmer's editor, auto-make, graphical debugger, MRWE application framework, math libraries, graphics and free support. Everything is included in one package. Easy to install, nothing else to buy and nothing else to learn! Special introductory pricing is available for a limited time.
   
• x86 & x86_64 Linux: Absoft Fortran compilers combine state-of-the-art code generation and optimisation technology with solid reliability and the industry's most complete list of tools and libraries into a single package for 32-bit and 64-bit Linux.
  
  Independently verified as a top performing Fortran compiler for 64-bit Linux on both Intel® Xeon® and AMD® Opteron® processors. The Absoft Fortran compilers are source-compatible with previous Absoft Fortran compilers allowing customers to obtain significant performance gains simply by compiling existing programs with the new compilers.
  
• STAR-CD Users: The STAR-CD solver provides one of the most effective numerical methodologies available in an industrial CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) code with the high level of accuracy needed for complex unstructured meshes. This is delivered with the speed, efficiency, and robustness demanded by engineering design and development cycles
  
  STAR-CD uses state-of-the-art, proprietary numerical schemes to achieve the highest levels of accuracy in both steady and transient simulations, making this solver one of the least sensitive to mesh type and quality, including distorted tetrahedral meshes. Remarkably, this has been achieved without sacrificing efficiency or robustness. So, whatever the choice of mesh or engineering application, the STAR solver will provide the best solution in the shortest time. A particular feature of STAR-CD is its fast CPU performance for transient flows.
  
  As the first to introduce moving mesh into a CFD code, CD-adapco has always been a technology leader in this area. The meshes can not only move and deform, but they can also slide along non-matching interfaces; furthermore, selected cells or cell regions can be deleted or added, detached and again attached to the core model. STAR-CD remains ahead of its competitors when performing CFD calculations in environments that are moving in a reciprocating fashion, from IC engines to a beating heart!
  
• MacOS/PPC (G5): Absoft Pro Fortran v9.2 is the most complete Fortran solution for Mac OS/PPC (G4/G5). Fully compatible with OS X 10.4 and OS X 10.3.9 and tuned for G5, Pro Fortran includes an ANSI/ISO Fortran 95 compiler capable of generating both 64-bit and 32-bit executables and C/C++ (32-bit G5 only) compiler, all of which are link and debug compatible with Apple C and other tools.
  
  For those with newer MacOS/Intel Systems, this version also runs on MacOS/Intel under Rosetta.
  
  Includes a powerful IDE which supports additional compilers and select third party applications such as IMSL and VAST auto parallel and vectorising tools as plug-ins on G5. Stand alone applications can be created with the click of a mouse. Also included are 2D/3Dgraphics, BLAS, ATLAS, LAPACK90 and HDF libraries and free technical support from friendly engineers included at no additional charge. Free standing applications can be created automatically.
  
  The programmer's editor uses colour syntax to highlight key words and data types. The Absoft Fx2™ Debugging Solution fully supports Fortran and intermixed C and assembly code. Create mixed language applications with Fortran, C/C++ and assembler using the single Absoft environment. For users working in multiple environments, multi-platform discount bundles are available.
  
  Additional Benefits: Pro Fortran includes Absoft's no-charge companion home license policy allows registered customers to install Pro Fortran on their home system for personal use at no additional cost. Each license includes Absoft premier technical support, free service packs and periodic software fixes at no additional charge.
  
  
• Linux PowerPC: The Absoft Fortran 95 Compiler for IBM's Linux on Power™ (and PowerPC™) combines superior performance, solid reliability, renowned cross-platform portability, and the industry's most complete suite of Fortran development tools and libraries into a single package. There is simply no other Fortran development solution for Linux on Power offering this much for this price. For maximum efficiency at tracking down and eliminating bugs, Absoft includes a copy of the popular Fx2™ Fortran debugger with every Fortran 95 Compiler at no additional charge. Pro Fortran conforms to LSB (Linux Standard Base) and is the only Linux Fortran solution including both ANSI/ISO Fortran 95 and F77 compilers. Absoft Fortran 95 generates 32-bit executable programs for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Compatibility with 'dusty deck' legacy applications and newly developed code is virtually assured.
