This article introduces the themes of the papers featured in the April 2000 special issue of the "International Journal of Parallel Programming." The first paper describes a loop transformation algorithm. The second paper proposes a new way to develop concurrent programs, called hypersequential programming. The third paper introduces a workstation cluster implementing a distributed shared-memory mechanism. Lastly, the fourth paper discusses issues of multilevel parallelization and how they affect design of parallelizing compilers.
