Abstract

The Flagship project aims to produce a computing technology based on the declarative style of programming. A major component of that technology is the design for a parallel machine that can efficiently utilize the implicit parallelism in declarative programs. The computational models that expose this implicit parallelism are described, and an architecture designed to use it is outlined. The operational issues, such as dynamic load balancing, that arise in such a system are discussed, and the mechanisms being used to evaluate the architecture are described.
