Abstract: The paper is devoted to the software support of the parallel computation model BSF (Bulk Synchronous Farm) intended to iterative algorithms with high computational complexity, which developed for multiprocessor systems with distributed memory of exaflops performance level. Software support includes parallel BSF-skeleton and BSF-Studio web-application. The definition and classification of parallel skeletons are given. The logic and file structure of new BSF-skeleton are described. The BSF-skeleton is a collection of C++ source code files used for BSF-programs development. A detailed description of the design and implementation of the BSF-Studio web-application, which is a visual constructor of BSF-programs, is given. BSF-Studio provides compilation and execution of program code.

Keywords: parallel computation model, BSF, parallel skeleton, BSF-Studio, web-application.
