As a relatively straightforward object-oriented language, Java is a plausible basis for a scientiic parallel programming language. We outline a conservative set of language extensions to support this kind of programming. The programming style advocated is Single Program Multiple Data (SPMD), with parallel arrays added as language primi-tives. Communications involving distributed arrays are hand...

We explore the role of top-down information in language processing by investigating parallel language activation in bimodal bilinguals, who are fluent users of a spoken and a signed language. In an eye-tracking study, bimodal bilinguals showed activation of their signed language while receiving input in English only. Since spoken and signed languages do not share structure, the results suggest ...

We outline new functional programming language and stackbased model of implicit parallel execution of programs. The language, called Schemik, is high-level lexically-scoped implicitly-parallel dialect of Scheme. Schemik is designed as an implicitly parallel language, meaning that the parallel execution of programs is done independently of the programmer and each program written in Schemik alway...

In this paper, we propose a method to find similar sentences based on language resources for building a parallel corpus between English and Korean from Wikipedia. We use a Wiki-dictionary consisted of document titles from the Wikipedia and bilingual example sentence pairs from Web dictionary instead of traditional machine readable dictionary. In this way, we perform similarity calculation betwe...

We introduce the Split-C language, a parallel extension of C intended for high performance programming on distributed memory multiprocessors, and demonstrate the use of the language in optimizing parallel programs. Split-C provides a global address space with a clear concept of locality and unusual assignment operators. These are used as tools to reduce the frequency and cost of remote access. ...
