Vector Pascal is a language targeted at SIMD instruction-sets such as the AVX and AVX512. It has a SIMD compiler which supports parallel vector operations, loop unrolling, common sub expression removal etc. It supports automatic multi-core parallelism.
It is implemented in Java.

I have added here a detailed analysis of the extent to which Vector Pascal and Free Pascal currently meet the ISO conformance tests. All tests with numbers above 500 are non iso tests for extensions that are either specific to Vector Pascal or part of Extended Pascal or Borland Pascal. The table shows the scores using different code generators for Vector Pascal. The column headed C stands for an experimental code generator that outputs C and uses gcc to do the code generation. Results for the Intel Xeon Phi are not included as I did not have access to one to perform the tests at present.
