Using Simple Abstraction to Reinvent Computing for Parallelism.

The article presents a method for teaching computer programmers to think in terms of parallel algorithms, designed to enable improved programming for multi-processor machines. It involves an Immediate Concurrent Execution (ICE) abstraction, which is supported by explicit multi-threaded (XMT) compute...
