for Multithreaded, Parallel, and Distributed Programming
from the homepage
MPD is a new programming language that has a syntax very close to the one used in the book Foundations of Multithreaded, Parallel, and Distributed Programming . The name of the language comes from the first three letters of the main words of the title of the book: Multithreaded, Parallel, and Distributed. These words also capture a distinguishing aspect of the language, namely that it supports all three of these concurrent programming techniques.
MPD is implemented as a variant of the SR programming language. It has a different parser, but it uses the same intermediate form and run-time system as SR. Consequently, MPD provides the same variety of concurrent programming mechanisms as does SR.
The language overview page contains links to a tutorial on the language, sample programs, a synopsis of the syntax of MPD, and a description of how to compile and execute programs. The MPD distribution contains manual pages and numerous additional examples.
MPD programs can execute on single processors, shared-memory multiprocessors, or clusters of (homogeneous) processors. The implementation supports a variety of different kinds of processors and Unix systems. See the download page for further information.
