Hi Chapel Team,

I am a Post Graduate student at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IIT
Madras). I would like to propose a project for Google Summer of Code this
year. I was a GSOC student during its 2011 version and contributed to LLVM
Polly [1].

My focus is on improving the productivity of parallel programs (especially
OpenMP programs). In that regard we have published a paper titled "Unique
Worker model for OpenMP" [2], in ICS 2015, which facilitated placement of
barriers (#pragma omp barrier) within parallel-for-loops (#pragma omp for).

Now as GSOC project, I would like to introduce such a feature for the
'forall' loops in Chapel, which is more or less similar to
parallel-for-loops in OpenMP.

I am reasonably new to Chapel and started learning about the language
features.

Please share your valuable thoughts on the project idea and any comments on
this would be of great help.
