Jean and Chris,

Below is a short title+abstract for my ICCS submission. I will supply 
full paper late tomorrow (15 Dec 05).

Thanks for your patience.

Best,
Mike

P.S. Would 1 of you please email me when you get this? I have gotten a 
little paranoid about Rice email.
TIA

Title: Derivatives by address for Fortran 77

Abstract:

   Automatic differentiation tools use 1 of 2 strategies to access
   derivative values. These strategies are:

      1) By-address
      2) By-name

   The by-address method is typically implemented by introducing
   structured types for each active scalar type. For example,
   scalar type 'real' will have an associated structure type
   'active-real'. Using this strategy, all active variables
   types are changed to the associated structured type.

   On the other hand, the by-name method introduces an associated
   new variable for each active variable. For example, the derivatives
   associated with 'pressure' would be 'd_pressure'.

   Since the by-address strategy employs structured types, AD tools
   for Fortran 77 have not employed that strategy. In this paper, we
   show how to use array access to implement the by-address strategy
   for Fortran 77. We discuss the canonicalization issues, outline our
   Adifor3.0 implementation of this technique, and give a few sample
   performance comparisons of the by-address vs the standard Adifor3.0
   by-name.
