+ Cilk is a language for multithreaded parallel programming based on
+ ANSI C. Cilk is especially effective for exploiting dynamic, highly
+ asynchronous parallelism, which can be difficult to write in data-parallel or
+ message-passing style. Cilk provides an effective platform for
+ programming dense and sparse numerical algorithms, such as matrix
+ factorization and N-body simulations. Cilk is algorithmic, in that
+ the runtime system employs a scheduler that allows the performance
+ of programs to be estimated accurately based on abstract complexity
+ measures.
