J Supercomput 75, 3997–4000 (2019). https://doi.org/10.1007/s11227-019-02942-20920-8542https://hdl.handle.net/10016/33716In summary, the papers included in this special issue are representative of the progress achieved by the research community at various levels from the very high level using parallel patterns to lower levels using, for example, transactional software memory. Also the integration of GPUs and FPGAs in the landscape is essential to achieve better performance in different categories of applications. All these innovative research directions will contribute to better achieve the long-term goal of better refactoring of existing applications to new and evolving parallel heterogeneous architectures.eng© 2019, Springer Science Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Natureresearch articleInformáticahttps://doi.org/10.1007/s11227-019-02942-2open access399784000JOURNAL OF SUPERCOMPUTING75AR/0000024746
