Eskimo: Experimenting Skeletons On The Shared Address Model
We discuss the lack of expressivity in some skeleton-based parallel programming frameworks. The problem is further exacerbated when approaching irregular problems and dealing with dynamic data structures.

| Summary: | We discuss the lack of expressivity in some skeleton-based parallel programming frameworks. The problem is further exacerbated when approaching irregular problems and dealing with dynamic data structures. Shared memory programming has been ar- gued to have substantial ease of programming advantages for this class of problems. We present eskimo library which represents an attempt to merge the two programming models by introducing skeletons in a shared memory framework. |
