Abstract: With the data growth, the need to parallelize treatments become crucial in numerous do-mains. But for non-specialists it is still difficult to tackle parallelism technicalities as data distribution, communications or load balancing. For the geoscience domain we propose a solution based on implicit parallel patterns. These patterns are abstract models for a class of algorithms which can be customized and automatically transformed in a parallel execution. In this paper, we describe a pattern for stencil computation and a novel pattern dealing with computation following a pre-defined order. They are particularly used in geosciences and we illustrate them with the flow direction and the flow accumulation computations.
