Sifflet is a visual, functional programming language and support system for students learning about recursion. Sifflet programmers define functions by drawing diagrams, and the Sifflet interpreter uses the diagrams to show how function calls are evaluated. Sifflet-lib is the library containing many modules of the sifflet application. What's New ---------- June 1, 2012: Version 1.2.5 provides compatibility with GHC 7.4.1. About Sifflet ------------- Sifflet is a visual, functional programming language intended as an aid for learning about recursion. * A picture explains Sifflet better than words: please see the screenshot showing how to evaluate 3!: http://mypage.iu.edu/~gdweber/software/sifflet/home.html * Features: - Visual editor. - Visual tracer/debugger which shows how recursive and other function calls are evaluated. To support active learning and avoid screen clutter, Sifflet displays only as much of the computation as the user requests. - A carefully crafted tutorial with 31 pictures and about as many pages. - Number, string, and list data types. - A small collection of primitive functions. - Runnable examples of compound functions. - Sifflet functions can be exported to Scheme, Python 3, and Haskell. * Download: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/sifflet-lib http://hackage.haskell.org/package/sifflet * Home page: http://mypage.iu.edu/~gdweber/software/sifflet/home.html * Tutorial: http://mypage.iu.edu/~gdweber/software/sifflet/doc/tutorial.html -- Gregory D.

FHPC 2012: Workshop on Functional High Performance Computing
by Clemens Grelck 30 May '12

30 May '12

======================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS FHPC 2012 ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional High Performance Computing Copenhagen, Denmark September 15th, 2012 http://www.hiperfit.dk/fhpc12/ Co-located with the International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP 2012) ======================================================================== The FHPC workshop aims at bringing together researchers exploring uses of functional (or more generally, declarative, high-level) programming technology in application domains where large-scale computations arise naturally and high performance is essential. Such computations would typically -- but not necessarily -- involve execution on highly parallel systems ranging from multi-core multi-processor systems to graphics accelerators (GPGPUs), reconfigurable hardware (FPGAs), large-scale compute clusters or any combination thereof. It is becoming apparent that radically new and well founded methodologies for programming such systems are required to address their inherent complexity and to reconcile execution performance with programming productivity. The aim of the meeting is to enable sharing of results, experiences, and novel ideas about how high-level, declarative specifications of computationally challenging problems can serve as highly transparent, maintainable, and portable code that approaches (or even exceeds) the performance of machine-oriented imperative implementations. The 2012 FHPC workshop comes with a particular theme motivated by geographic co-location with the newly established HIPERFIT Research Centre for Functional High-Performance Computing for Financial Information Technology (www.hiperfit.dk) at the University of Copenhagen. Hence, we particularly encourage submissions with a background in computational finance. Notwithstanding, the workshop welcomes submissions from other application domains as much as general-purpose work on the theory and practice of declarative approaches to high-performance computing. Proceedings: ============ Accepted papers will be published by the ACM and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. * Submission Deadline: 10th June 2012, anywhere on earth * Author Notification: 27th June 2012 * Final Papers Due : 10th July 2012 Submitted papers must be in portable document format (PDF), formatted according to the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines (double column, 9pt format). See http://www.sigplan.org/authorInformation.htm for more information and style files. The page limit is 12 pages. Submission deadlines and page limit are firm. Any paper submitted must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy (http://www.sigplan.org/republicationpolicy.htm) Travel Support: =============== Student attendees with accepted papers can apply for a SIGPLAN PAC grant to help cover travel expenses. PAC also offers other support, such as for child-care expenses during the meeting or for travel costs for companions of SIGPLAN members with physical disabilities, as well as for travel from locations outside of North America and Europe. For details on the PAC programme, see its web page (http://www.sigplan.org/PAC.htm) Programme Committee: ============================== Marco Aldinucci University of Torino, Italy Manuel Chakravarty University of New South Wales, Australia Andrzej Filinski University of Copenhagen, Denmark (chair) Clemens Grelck University of Amsterdam, Netherlands (chair) Gaetan Hains University of Paris Est, France Zhenjiang Hu National Institute of Informatics, Japan Mike Giles Oxford University, UK Neal Glew Intel, USA Ryan Newton University of Indiana, USA Satnam Singh Google, USA Phil Trinder Heriot-Watt University, UK Viktoria Zsok Eotvos Lorand University Budapest, Hungary Workshop Organizers: ==================== Andrzej Filinski Clemens Grelck DIKU Informatics Institute University of Copenhagen University of Amsterdam Universitetsparken 1 Science Park 904 2100 Copenhagen 1098XH Amsterdam Denmark Netherlands andrzej(a)diku.dk c.grelck(a)uva.nl -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr Clemens Grelck Science Park 904 University Lecturer 1098XH Amsterdam Netherlands University of Amsterdam Institute for Informatics T +31 (0) 20 525 8683 Computer Systems Architecture Group F +31 (0) 20 525 7490 Office C3.105 www.science.uva.nl/~grelck ----------------------------------------------------------------------
