This might be very domain-specific language can be useful as they can provide higher level abstractions and even assist programmers with decomposing common tasks into parallel ones without the programmers necessarily knowing all the details.

Is this paradigm also applicable for SIMD on ISPC, or is this paradigm only for multi-threading and multi-processing?

@wanze I guess it's more for multi-threading and multi-processing because there are different execution units, not just different data
