An HPF_SERIAL subprogram may contain references to any HPF intrinsic function or HPF_LIBRARY procedure, except HPF_ALIGNMENT, HPF_DISTRIBUTION or HPF_TEMPLATE. The HPF_LOCAL_LIBRARY module must not be used within an HPF_SERIAL scope.
References to the intrinsic functions NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS and PROCESSORS_SHAPE will return the same value as if the function reference appeared in global HPF.
