Abstract
This paper describes the techniques used by CURARE, a program transformer, to restructure Lisp programs for concurrent execution in multiprocessor Lisp systems. CURARE tries to eliminate control and data-dependencies that prevent concurrent execution of the invocations of recursive functions. CURARE also inserts a variety of synchronization devices to ensure that unremovable dependencies do not impair execution of a program. The product of this process is semantically equivalent to the original Lisp program, but executes faster on a multiprocessor than would the original program.
