Title: | BIDDLE: A BIdirectional Data Driven Lisp Engine | Authors: | Wong, W.F. Yuen, C.K. |
Issue Date: | 1989 | Citation: | Wong, W.F.,Yuen, C.K. (1989). BIDDLE: A BIdirectional Data Driven Lisp Engine : 207-214. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | The authors propose BIDDLE, a direct execution architecture for Lisp based on both data- and demand-driven principles. A priority queuing mechanism is used to control the parallelism and the workload of the processing elements. Also introduced is a novel mechanism whereby the sequential semantics of Lisp can be enforced in such a way as not to reduce the parallelism too drastically. BIDDLE is, therefore, aimed at achieving a balance between eager and lazy evaluation, sequential semantics, and parallelism. At present, BIDDLE exists only on paper and is a long way from hardware implementation. | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/99477 | ISBN: | 0818619848 |
