Abstract

Our experiments with Qlisp have led to two ways of improving the performance of parallel Lisp programs. One is to reduce the cost of process creation and scheduling; the other is to use a dynamic partitioning and scheduling method. We describe these techniques and present the results of several experiments that use them. We also present an analysis of the dynamic partitioning method to explain the reasons for its success.
