Our PARLANSE parallel programming language provides explicit
"spawn" (dynamic task parallelism) and "recruit" (forming tasks into
logical supertasks), as well as "parallel" and "partialorder"
(static declaration of task parallelism). As far as we know,
PARLANSE is unique in providing an exception handling mechanism
which handles exceptions crossing task boundaries seamlessly.
PARLANSE is used primarily to code application programs have
irregular (e.g., medium to small grain) parallelism. It is used
exclusively as the programming language for our software
reengineering tools, which deal with large, irregular structures
(programs).
