[comp.lang.c] Linda Compiler.

mannemel@handel.cs.colostate.edu (devakumar mannemela) (11/13/90)

Hi ,

I need some info about the C-Linda  compiler, ( for my raytracer ). I have
no idea about either the language or compiler. First of all , where can i get
the compiler from ? Can i get it by ftp from any site ? Could you give
me any references about the language ?

I work on HP 9000/300 machines   running HP-UX.

Thanks in advance.

Bye,
Dev Kumar.

P.S :- Please do not post. Send me e-mail.

The C-Linda system is available under license from Scientific Computing
Associates for systems ranging from uniprocessor development systems to
commercial multiprocessors to local arean networks.

There is a charge, but it is modest for Universities.

Pls. send mail to linda@sca.com for more information (they will be
better able to help you if you provide some details as to the target
environment (machine/os) of interest).

Yours,
-Nick Carriero

Hi,

Linda is available from Scientific Computing Associates, Inc. of New Haven, CT
I know because I used to work there before I came to work here at Convex.
I suggest that you try sending mail to yale!sca!philbin to ask about details.
Linda should be available to schools at an educational discount.  Feel free
to contact me if you have other questions or if your mail to SCA bounces.

Here are some references on C-Linda. 

If you get any other useful replies, please forward them to me or to
comp.lang.misc. Especially I would be interested in any available
implementations.
