Title
A Parallel Functional Database on GRIP
Abstract
GRIP is a shared-memory multiprocessor designed for efficient parallel evaluation of functionallanguages, using compiled graph reduction. In this paper, we consider the feasibilityof implementing a database manager on GRIP, and present results obtained from a pilotimplementation. A database implemented in a pure functional language must be modifiednon-destructively, i.e. the original database must be preserved and a new copy constructed.The naive implementation provides evidence for the...
