The inherent parallelism of applicative languages such as APL and functional languages such as FP present a little-exploited and somewhat unorthodox means of parallel programming. Here we summarize our investigation of a new approach to compiling such ...
Initial evidence is presented that explicitly parallel, machine-independent programs can automatically be translated into parallel machine code that is competitive in performance with hand-written code.The programming language used is Modula-2*, an ...
We present a compiler and a typed intermediate language for a subset of APL. The intermediate language treats all numeric data as multi-dimensional arrays and the type system makes explicit the ranks of arrays. Primitive operators are polymorphic in ...
