'''NOTE:''' Gyre has been subsumed by Mozilla's [http://wiki.github.com/graydon/rust/language-faq Rust]. There will be no further development on gyre. | |||
My term project for Professor Spencer Rugaber's [[Programming Language Theory|CS 6390]], Gyre investigates programming language support for communicating sequential processes, especially on manycore [[NUMA]] machines. It is heavily indebted to [http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/lang/erlang/ Erlang], borrowing many themes and a great deal of syntax from that language. Other influences include [http://cml.cs.uchicago.edu/ Concurrent ML] (CML) and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLISS BLISS] systems programming language. It is partially an outgrowth of my work on [[libtorque]], and a UNIX implementation would likely make use of that library. | |||
