The book is very lucid, precise, and includes meaningful exercises and projects at the end of each chapter. Other books on the subject are either too big, or lack good quality exercises. All books include only toy examples, not meaningful graduate level exercises. Terms of Sale: 100 % Customer Satisfaction is our Goal.

Anderson, PhD Department of Computer Science University of Colorado, Boulder 1. Introduction Concurrent programming languages are not new, but they have been getting a lot of attention more recently due to their potential with multiple processors. Processors have gone from growing exponentially in terms of speed, to growing in terms of quantity. This means processes that are completely serial in execution will soon be seeing a plateau in performance gains since they can only rely on one processor. A popular approach to using these extra processors is to make programs multi-threaded. The threads can execute in parallel and use shared memory to speed up execution times. These multithreaded processes can significantly speed up performance, as long as the number of dependencies remains low. Amdahl‘s law states that these performance gains can only be relative to the amount of processing that can be parallelized [1]. However, the performance gains are significant enough to be looked into. These gains not only come from the processing being divvied up into sections that run in parallel, but from the inherent gains from sharing memory and data structures. Passing new threads a copy of a data structure can be demanding on the processor because it requires the processor to delve into memory and make an exact copy in a new location in memory. Indeed some studies have shown that the problem with optimizing concurrent threads is not in utilizing the processors optimally, but in the need for technical improvements in memory performance [2].

The name Lisp comes from LISt Processing Language. Initial ideas for Lisp were formulated in 1956-1958; some were implemented in FLPL (FORTRAN-based List Processing Language). The first Lisp implementation, for application to AI problems, took place 1958-1962 at MIT. There are many dialects of Lisp. Perhaps the most commonly used dialect is Common Lisp, which includes CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System. See http://www-formal.stanford.edu/jmc/history/lisp/lisp.html for some interesting details on the early history of Lisp. 1 Don't quote me!

  • The Evolution of Lisp

    The Evolution of Lisp

    1 The Evolution of Lisp Guy L. Steele Jr. Richard P. Gabriel Thinking Machines Corporation Lucid, Inc. 245 First Street 707 Laurel Street Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142 Menlo Park, California 94025 Phone: (617) 234-2860 Phone: (415) 329-8400 FAX: (617) 243-4444 FAX: (415) 329-8480 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Lisp is the world’s greatest programming language—or so its proponents think. The structure of Lisp makes it easy to extend the language or even to implement entirely new dialects without starting from scratch. Overall, the evolution of Lisp has been guided more by institutional rivalry, one-upsmanship, and the glee born of technical cleverness that is characteristic of the “hacker culture” than by sober assessments of technical requirements. Nevertheless this process has eventually produced both an industrial- strength programming language, messy but powerful, and a technically pure dialect, small but powerful, that is suitable for use by programming-language theoreticians. We pick up where McCarthy’s paper in the first HOPL conference left off. We trace the development chronologically from the era of the PDP-6, through the heyday of Interlisp and MacLisp, past the ascension and decline of special purpose Lisp machines, to the present era of standardization activities. We then examine the technical evolution of a few representative language features, including both some notable successes and some notable failures, that illuminate design issues that distinguish Lisp from other programming languages. We also discuss the use of Lisp as a laboratory for designing other programming languages. We conclude with some reflections on the forces that have driven the evolution of Lisp.

    Basic Lisp Techniques David J. Cooper, Jr. February 14, 2011 ii 0Copyright c 2011, Franz Inc. and David J. Cooper, Jr. Foreword1 Computers, and the software applications that power them, permeate every facet of our daily lives. From groceries to airline reservations to dental appointments, our reliance on technology is all-encompassing. And, it’s not enough. Every day, our expectations of technology and software increase: • smart appliances that can be controlled via the internet • better search engines that generate information we actually want • voice-activated laptops • cars that know exactly where to go The list is endless. Unfortunately, there is not an endless supply of programmers and developers to satisfy our insatiable appetites for new features and gadgets. Every day, hundreds of magazine and on-line articles focus on the time and people resources needed to support future technological expectations. Further, the days of unlimited funding are over. Investors want to see results, fast. Common Lisp (CL) is one of the few languages and development options that can meet these challenges. Powerful, flexible, changeable on the fly — increasingly, CL is playing a leading role in areas with complex problem-solving demands. Engineers in the fields of bioinformatics, scheduling, data mining, document management, B2B, and E-commerce have all turned to CL to complete their applications on time and within budget. CL, however, no longer just appropriate for the most complex problems. Applications of modest complexity, but with demanding needs for fast development cycles and customization, are also ideal candidates for CL. Other languages have tried to mimic CL, with limited success.
