The Fortress Programming Language 

Sam Tobin-Hochstadt
Northeastern University

Fortress is a next-generation language for High Performance computing.
But it's also a language with new ideas of relevance to the broader PL
community.  This talk will give a PL researcher's overview of Fortress,
and talk about three ways in which it is attempting radical innovation:
in the syntax, the type system, and the component system.


Upcoming Events:

11/30 Matthew Fluet, Type-systems for Region-based Memory Management
