MPI is really independent of places/futures because it is process based. We could do an MPI-like or even MPI compatible Racket library.
For CUDA, it is easier, because Racket already has a featureful OpenCL implementation: http://planet.plt-scheme.org/display.ss?package=opencl.plt&owner=jaymccarthy In fact, the development version is getting much better: faster & more compatible: http://github.com/jeapostrophe/opencl Jay On Sun, Oct 3, 2010 at 10:16 AM, Robby Findler <[email protected]> wrote: > Probably bestto switch this to the users mailing list. > > The short answer: check out places and futures in the docs.
