Fortress

{{language|Fortress |site=http://projectfortress.sun.com/Projects/Community }}

Fortress is a new programming language designed for high-performance computing (HPC) with high programmability. The name "Fortress" is intended to connote a secure Fortran, i.e., "a language for high-performance computation that provides abstraction and type safety on par with modern programming language principles."[[#Citation|[1]]] Fortress is designed to be both highly parallel and have rich functionality contained within libraries, drawing from Java but taken to a higher degree.
