ADVANCE PROGRAM
IEEE Computer Society 1990 International Conference on
Computer Languages
New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, March 12-15, 1990
Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Computer Languages Technical Committee
Monday March 12, 1990: Tutorial: 8:30 - 12:30 and 1:30 - 5:30
PART I: THE FUNCTIONAL LANGUAGE HASKELL by Paul Hudak, Yale University
Haskell is a new functional programming language that was designed by a
14-member international committee representative of the "modern" school of
functional programming. Although intended primarily as a "common" language to
promote both research and application of functional languages, it has several
new features that are worthy in their own right---most notably, an elegant
form of overloading called type classes, immutable non-strict arrays called
array comprehensions, and a purely functional I/O system using streams
together with a dual continuation model. Each of these design features, and
others, represent datapoints in an interesting spectrum of programming
language concepts. This tutorial will center on programming in Haskell, but
with emphasis on these concepts. In addition, more recent trends in
functional language research will be discussed with the hope of understanding
where functional programming research is headed in the future.
PART II: CONCURRENT C by Narain Gehani, AT&T Bell Labs
Concurrent C is a superset of C that provides parallel programming facilities.
It is also a superset of C++ which extends C with object-oriented programming
facilities (the Concurrent C compiler has compile-time option to support
Concurrent C++). Concurrent C processes interact by means of transactions
(message passing) which can be synchronous or asynchronous. The facilities
provided include those for declaring and creating processes, process
synchronization, conditional and unconditional message passing, selective
waiting for events, process termination and abortion. Concurrent C has been
implemented on several types of processors and multiprocessors. In this
tutorial, we will describe Concurrent C, use it to write non-trivial programs,
explain design decisions, and contrast the concurrent facilities in Concurrent
C with those in Ada.
