Functional programming languages have been proposed to enhance the
clarity of programs, to increase programmer productivity, and to
reduce the difficulties of program verification. However, the lack
of efficient implementation on conventional architectures prevents
them from being widely accepted. This book presents an approach for
solving this problem. A pipelined parallel reduction system has
been developed on a multiprocessor system to realize hierarchical
parallel processing. The correctness, reasonability and termination
of the parallel execution can be guaranteed by enriching the lambda
calculus lying behind functional languages. The scheduling
strategies are also investigated for balancing processor loads and
reducing processor idle ratio. The results of performance
evaluation have exhibited the potential of the proposed functional
architecture. The author believes this book would be a useful
reference for those interested in understanding the implementation
of functional languages.
