Dr. Moniot awarded $50k grant to upgrade FTNCHEK
Fordham's Dr. Robert Moniot
has been awarded a grant for $49,670 from the
Department of Defense High Performance Computing
Modernization Program Office, to upgrade the open-source
program FTNCHEK so that it supports modern Fortran syntax.
FTNCHEK is a static analyzer that helps check Fortran
programs for bugs. It was originally written by Dr. Moniot
with the help of undergraduate students two decades ago and
accepted Fortran 77. Since then the Fortran language has
undergone some major enhancements, and FTNCHEK has not kept
pace. The grant is to fund a graduate research assistant
who will add support for the new language features so that
FTNCHEK can be used on modern Fortran code.
