A Proposal for a Programming Language for Parallel Processing Environments.
Abstract
This report describes a proposal for a programming language designed for parallel processing environments. The proposed language has the advantage of preserving the programming concepts of sequential languages. Parallelism in execution is achieved by means of translating the programs to single assignment form. This task is performed by the compiler and is transparent to the programmer. The proposed language is the result of a minimum set of restrictions on and a minimum set of modifications to a higher level block-oriented language for making the translation to single assignment form feasible.
