![]() ![]() In 1997, PGI released x86 compilers for general use on Linux workstations. In 1996, PGI developed x86 compilers for the ASCI Red Supercomputer at Sandia National Laboratories, the first computer system to sustain teraflop performance. PGI produced an HPF compiler, called PGHPF, until its last release, version 15.10, on October 28, 2015. In the early 1990s, PGI was deeply involved in the development of High Performance Fortran, or HPF, a data parallel language extension to Fortran 90 which provides a portable programming interface for a wide variety of architectures. These compilers were used on Intel supercomputers like the iPSC/860, the Touchstone Delta, and the Paragon, and were the compilers of choice for the majority of i860-based platforms. ![]() The first products, pipelining Fortran and C compilers, were released in 1991, targeting the Intel i860 processor. The Portland Group was founded as a privately held company in 1989, using compiler technology developed at and acquired from Floating Point Systems Inc.
