Active messages... are a parallel programming paradigm in which the sender of a message specifies a message handler to be executed at the receiver upon arrival of the message. When the message is received, the receiver executes the message handler to process the data contained in the message. 2, record 1, English, - active%20message

Array-oriented programming offers a unique blend of programmer productivity and high-performance parallel execution. As an abstraction, it directly mirrors high-level mathematical constructions commonly used in many fields... As a language feature, it exposes regular control flow, exhibits structured data dependencies, and lends itself to many types of program analysis. 2, record 3, English, - array%2Doriented%20programming
