Time-stamp: This directory contains very simple GdH test programs. GdH, Glasgow distributed Haskell, is an extension of Haskell98 for executing programs on a network of machines, each running an instance of the distributed runtime-system (RTS). The RTS ("sticky GUM") is an extension of the parallel RTS (GUM) adding explicit task placement. GdH uses a virtual shared heap and implicit communication. For more details see http://www.cee.hw.ac.uk/~dsg/gdh At the moment GdH is still in an experimental stage. The compiler should know about a way "md" for building the distributed version of the RTS (no modifications in the compiler are necessary). This whole subdir needs integration into the nofib build machinery. At the moment they are standalone makefiles. If you want to play with them: - Do a make all in the GdH dir for building modified versions of some libraries. - Go into one of the other dirs, containing one file test programs, and do a make (prbly have to add -i../GdH)
