Fortress is a programming language designed to support parallel computing for scientific applications at scales ranging from multicore desktops and laptops to petascale supercomputers. Its generality and features for user extension also make it a useful framework for experimental design of domain-specific languages. The project originated at Sun Microsystems Laboratories in 2003 as part of their work on the DARPA HPCS (High Productivity Computing Systems) program [6] and became an open-source project in 2007.
