A major goal of the design of PPL is that it must allow programmers to specify parallel programs in a convenient manner. The syntax and semantics of PPL are similar to those of process-oriented simulation languages. This talk summarizes PPL and describes its implementation for the Sequent Balance 8000 Multiprocessor. Two examples illustrate many of the features of PPL. DATE: 22 May 86 TIME: 10 am BLDG: 233 ROOM: 172 Thursday POINT OF CONTACT: E.
