This book was released on 1993-11-03 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parallel and distributed computing are becoming increasingly important as cost-effective ways to achieve high computational performance. Symbolic computations are notable for their use of irregular data structures and hence parallel symbolic computing has its own distinctive set of technical challenges. The papers in this book are based on presentations made at a workshop at MIT in October 1992. They present results in a wide range of areas including: speculative computation, scheduling techniques, program development tools and environments, programming languages and systems, models of concurrency and distribution, parallel computer architecture, and symbolic applications.

Download or read book Parallel Lisp written by Takayasu Itō and published by Springer. This book was released on 1990 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume presents the proceedings of a workshop at which major Parallel Lisp activities in the US and Japan were explained. Work covered includes Multilisp and Mul-T at MIT, Qlisp at Stanford, Lucid and Parcel at Illinois, PaiLisp at Tohoku University, Multiprocessor Lisp on TOP-1 at IBM Tokyo Research, and concurrent programming in TAO. Most papers present languages and systems of Parallel Lisp and are in particular concerned with: - Language constructs of Parallel Lisp and their meanings from the standpoint of implementing Parallel Lisp systems; - Some important technical issues such as parallel garbage collection, dynamic task partitioning, futures and continuations in parallelism, automatic parallelization of Lisp programs, and the kernel concept of Parallel Lisp. Some performance results are reported that suggest practical applicability of Parallel Lisp systems in the near future. Several papers on concurrent object-oriented systems are also included."--PUBLISHER'S WEBSITE.

Book excerpt: Abstract: "This paper reviews the parallel processing facilities of several Lisp dialects and considers their implementations on the BIDDLE system. Architectural extensions to BIDDLE to support such constructs are identified. The combination of the respective advantages of BIDDLE and Multilisp/Qlisp appears to be a promising way of achieving effective parallel Lisp systems."

This book was released on 1995 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "There is a commonly held idea that although Lisp is a good language for prototyping and software development, it is often too inefficient to be useful in actual implementation. Advances in compiling Lisp have begun to change this notion. However, the situation is less clear in the case of parallel Lisp dialects. In this paper, we report on our experience in implementing a compiler for a parallel Lisp dialect we called BaLinda Lisp for a shared memory multiprocessor. For a class of problems, our compiler was able to achieve performances on Lisp programs that are near, if not equal to, their imperative (C) equivalents. However, on other problems, the situation is less than ideal. We investigate this phenomenum [sic] and outline the future challenges in realizing a production strength parallel Lisp compiler."

Download or read book An Implementation of a Parallel Processing Package in LISP written by Donald William Harney and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of a process is often used in connection with operations of parts of a computer system. This thesis discusses processes in terms of their use as representations of a physical object or system. Five primitives are introduced as operators for allowing processes to be run in a piecemeal fashion. A function package is presented which supplements UCI LISP and allows the user to define LISP functions as processes which (conceptually) run in parallel. The process functions are presented as a package which supplements the LISP system. The functions SUSPEND, RESUME and TERMINATE allow the user to temporarily stop the execution of an instance, continue the execution of an instance, or destroy an instance of a process, respectively. The ACCESS function allows one instance to look up variable values local to another instance. The START function is used as a process controller and begins the execution of the processes. Two illustrations of the function package are given. The first example, a growth model of a stand of grand fir trees, has been implemented and illustrates parallel processing in a numerical simulation environment. The second example is the Lee algorithm for finding the shortest path through a directed weighted graph. This example has not been implemented, but is discussed as an example of parallel processing in a symbolic computational environment.

Download or read book Functions Objects and Parallelism written by C. K. Yuen and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1999 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to show how programming will be changed by the concepts of parallel systems and how these concepts relate to the ideas of functions and objects. To demonstrate the kind of programming that can be done on these systems, the research language Balinda K is used. The book will also enhance the reader's grasp of the concepts of concurrency and modular programming, reviewing these from the perspectives of application programming in a parallel language. The book should interest graduate and senior undergraduate students of computer science and computer engineering, and IT professionals working in a multiprocesing or distributed computing environment.
