best parallel array language

[rusi]

Are there any Apls (or related array languages like J) which have good
parallel implementations?

Googling around I find http://www.cs.trinity.edu/~jhowland/leave/leave/
but it does not seem implemented.

And there is K http://www.kx.com/

Any others?

I am currently in the process of creating a high-performance, parallel APL
as my research. I anticipate having something that people can use and play
with sometime next year. It will basically be APL.

Please let me know when it materializes.
Any chance in next 6 months?

There is a good chance that I will have something up by then. Could you
let me know a bit more about what you are hoping to do with such a
parallel APL?

We have to deliver in about 7-8 months -- the chosen language is
Erlang. Because I am an old functional programmer -- Lisp, Haskell and
its predecessors, (a bit of Apl) -- I am on the team. However I
suspect that the choice has been made without regard to the difference
between concurrency and parallelism (eg
http://existentialtype.wordpress.com/2011/03/17/parallelism-is-not-concurrency/
)

So having a well-thought properly implemented (data)parallel language
would probably help to point out in pragmatic terms the issues.

And so... my question of '6 months' is not really accurate -- if we
dont have it now, its probably not much use for this project :-)

Anyway thanks again for offering. Maybe for some other project??
