Fortran, the first successful, higher-level programming language, was designed to let engineers and scientists write programs in a vernacular that closely resembled math formulas familiar to them.
Higher-level programming would be when you want to do a flow analysis around an airplane or a car.
Rather than being directly used for application development, the main purpose of OCR is to become a low-level runtime for higher-level programming models and tools.
Higher-level programming languages provide abstractions for particular types of computations; the information captured by these languages can be used to analyze and synthesize software.
The abstraction of platform size and clock cycle timing makes SCORE a higher-level programming model than register transfer level (RTL) descriptions such as very high-speed integrated circuit hardware description language (VHDL).
While it is possible to re-train scientists to use emerging high-performance computing (HPC) models, it is much more effective to provide them with a higher-level programming environment that has been specialized to their particular domain.
Taking Google's GFS and Map-Reduce papers as rough technical specifications, open-source equivalents were developed, and the Apache Hadoop Map-Reduce platform, and its underlying file system HDFS emerged.18 Microsoft's technologies include a parallel runtime system called Dryad [69], and two higher-level programming models, DryadLINQ [110] and the SQL-like SCOPE language [27].
Through a specific juridical tool (in the form of a contract, e.g. the district pact) the projects are included in higher-level programming tools, in application of the principles of vertical and horizontal subsidiarity, so they are financed with public and private sources and implemented.
Rather, they rely on commercial imaging applications that automatically and instantaneously supply the reams of machine code required for the execution of an artist's imaging decision after that decision has triggered a particular instruction in the higher-level programming language of the application.
On top of the DFS, many different higher-level programming frameworks have been developed.
