This book presents the thoroughly refereed post-workshop
proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Languages and
Compilers for Parallel Computing, LCPC'96, held in San Jose,
California, in August 1996.
The book contains 35 carefully revised full papers together with
nine poster presentations. The papers are organized in topical
sections on automatic data distribution and locality enhancement,
program analysis, compiler algorithms for fine-grain parallelism,
instruction scheduling and register allocation, parallelizing
compilers, communication optimization, compiling HPF, and run-time
control of parallelism.

This book presents the refereed proceedings of the Eighth Annual
Workshop on Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing, held in
Columbus, Ohio in August 1995.
The 38 full revised papers presented were carefully selected for
inclusion in the proceedings and reflect the state of the art of
research and advanced applications in parallel languages,
restructuring compilers, and runtime systems. The papers are
organized in sections on fine-grain parallelism, interprocedural
analysis, program analysis, Fortran 90 and HPF, loop
parallelization for HPF compilers, tools and libraries, loop-level
optimization, automatic data distribution, compiler models,
irregular computation, object-oriented and functional parallelism.

This volume presents revised versions of the 32 papers accepted for
the Seventh Annual Workshop on Languages and Compilers for Parallel
Computing, held in Ithaca, NY in August 1994.
The 32 papers presented report on the leading research activities
in languages and compilers for parallel computing and thus reflect
the state of the art in the field. The volume is organized in
sections on fine-grain parallelism, align- ment and distribution,
postlinear loop transformation, parallel structures, program
analysis, computer communication, automatic parallelization,
languages for parallelism, scheduling and program optimization, and
program evaluation.

This book contains papers selected for presentation at the Sixth
Annual Workshop on Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing.
The workshop washosted by the Oregon Graduate Institute of Science
and Technology. All the major research efforts in parallel
languages and compilers are represented in this workshop series.
The 36 papers in the volume aregrouped under nine headings: dynamic
data structures, parallel languages, High Performance Fortran, loop
transformation, logic and dataflow language implementations, fine
grain parallelism, scalar analysis, parallelizing compilers, and
analysis of parallel programs. The book represents a valuable
snapshot of the state of research in the field in 1993.

The articles in this volume are revised versions of the best papers
presented at the Fifth Workshop on Languages and Compilers for
Parallel Computing, held at Yale University, August 1992. The
previous workshops in this series were held in Santa Clara (1991),
Irvine (1990), Urbana (1989), and Ithaca (1988). As in previous
years, a reasonable cross-section of some of the best work in the
field is presented. The volume contains 35 papers, mostly by
authors working in the U.S. or Canada but also by authors from
Austria, Denmark, Israel, Italy, Japan and the U.K.

This volume contains the proceedings of the Fourth Workshop on
Languages andCompilers for Parallel Computing, held in Santa Clara,
California, in August1991. The purpose of the workshop, held every
year since 1988, is to bring together the leading researchers on
parallel programming language designand compilation techniques for
parallel computers. The papers in this book cover several important
topics including: (1) languages and structures to represent
programs internally in the compiler, (2) techniques to analyzeand
manipulate sequential loops in order to generate a parallel
version, (3)techniques to detect and extract fine-grain
parallelism, (4) scheduling and memory-management issues in
automatically generated parallel programs, (5) parallel programming
language designs, and (6) compilation of explicitly parallel
programs. Together, the papers give a good overview of the research
projects underway in 1991 in this field.

In this fascinating book - part speculation, part explanation, Gelernter takes us on a tour of the computer technology of the near future. Mirror Worlds, he contends, will allow us to explore the world in unprecedented depth and detail without ever changing out of our pyjamas! Gelernter does much more than just speculate about how this amazing new software will be used - he shows us how it will be made, explaining carefully and in detail how to build a mirror world using technology already available. Mirror Worlds offers a lucid and humanistic account of the coming software revolution, told by a computer scientist at the cutting edge of his field.
When something works well, you can feel it; there is a sense of
rightness to it. We call that rightness beauty, and it ought to be
the single most important component of design.This recognition is
at the heart of David Gelernter's witty argued essay, Machine
Beauty, which defines beauty as an inspired mating of simplicity
and power. You can see it in a Bauhaus chair, the Hoover Dam, or an
Emerson radio circa 1930. In contrast, too many contemporary
technologists run out of ideas and resort to gimmicks and features;
they are rarely capable of real, structural ingenuity.Nowhere is
this more evident than in the world of computers. You don't have to
look far to see how oblivious most computer technologists are to
the idea of beauty. Just look at how ugly your computer cabinet is,
how unwieldy and out of sync it feels with the manner and speed
with which you process thought.The best designers, however, are
obsessed with beauty. Both hardware and software should afford us
the greatest opportunity to achieve deep beauty, the kind of beauty
that happens when many types of loveliness reinforce one another,
when design expresses an underlying technology, a machine logic.
Program software ought to be transparent; it should engage what
Gelernter calls "a thought-amplifying feedback loop," a creative
symbiosis with its user. These principles, beautiful in themselves,
will set the stage for the next technological revolution, in which
the pursuit of elegance will lead to extraordinary
innovations."Machine Beauty" will delight Gelernter's growing
audience, fans of his provocative and biting journalism. Anyone who
manufactures, designs, or uses computers will be galvanized by his
cogent arguments andtantalizing glimpse of a bright future, where
beautiful technology abounds.
