Abstract
Abstract The theory of powerlists was recently introduced by Jayadev Misra (1994). Powerlists can be used to specify and verify certain parallel algorithms, using a notation similar to functional programming languages. In contrast to sequential languages the powerlist notation has constructs for expressing balanced divisions of lists. We study how Prefix Sum , a fundamental parallel algorithm, can be tailored for efficient execution on hypercubic architectures. Then we derive a strategy for mapping most powerlist functions to efficient programs for hypercubic architectures.
