Programming Models and Languages for Parallel Architectures

We study new programming models and languages for emerging architectures. The initial focus was on specific applications languages and models, targeting scalar operand networks (SON) and SIMD architectures. We currently focus on multicore architectures, striving to design a flexible but effective programming language based on OpenCL, CUDA and other industrial efforts.
