My term project for Professor Spencer Rugaber's 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.
