Parallel programming enviornments provide a way for users to reap the benifits of parallelism, while reducing the effort required to create parallel applications. The CO2P3S parallel programming system is one such tool, using a pattern-based approach to express concurrency. This paper demonstrates that the CO2P3S system contains a rich set of paralllel aptterns for implementing a wide variety of applications running on shared-memory or distrubuted-memory hardware. Code metrics and performance results are presented to show the usability of the CO2P3S system and its ability to reduce programming effort, while producing programs with reasonable performance.
