Abstract:
This paper presents, for wider discussion by the technical community, suggested means for enhancing (ANS) FORTRAN in order to accommodate the needs of operations research analysts in programming tasks involving large, structured or sparse matrices. Such needs frequently arise in connection with large-scale optimization problems. Most of the text deals with fundamental concepts and descriptions of syntax, hut related data structures are also treated. Proposed new capabilities include exploitation of repeated values among matrix entries, space-saving "quasi-dynamic storage allocation", and easy set-up for construction of large matrices from smaller ones (with the actual construction deferable until and if the need arises).
