AbstractA new version of a special-purpose processor for running lazy functional programs is presented. This processor – the Reduceron – exploits parallel memories and dynamic analyses to increase evaluation speed, and is implemented using reconfigurable hardware. Compared to a more conventional functional language implementation targeting a standard RISC processor running on the same reconfigurable hardware, the Reduceron offers a significant improvement in run-time performance.
