By adding microprogrammable functionality to the memory units, the authors have developed a MIMD computer architecture which explores the middle region of this spectrum. This has resulted in an unusual and flexible bus-based multiprocessor, which is being used as a base for research in parallel functional programming languages. The authors introduce parallel functional programming, and describe the architecture of the GRIP multiprocessor}, publisher = {IEE}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/functional-programming-on-the-grip-multiprocessor/}, edition = {IEE Seminar on Digital Parallel Processors, Lisbon, Portugal}, }
