Control.Monad.Par.Scheds.Trace
Description
This is the scheduler described in the paper "A Monad for
Deterministic Parallelism". It is based on a lazy Trace data
structure that separates the scheduler from the Par monad
method implementations.
- data Par a
- runPar :: Par a -> a
- runParIO :: Par a -> IO a
- fork :: Par () -> Par ()
- data IVar a
- new :: Par (IVar a)
- newFull :: NFData a => a -> Par (IVar a)
- newFull_ :: a -> Par (IVar a)
- get :: IVar a -> Par a
- put :: NFData a => IVar a -> a -> Par ()
- put_ :: IVar a -> a -> Par ()
- spawn :: NFData a => Par a -> Par (IVar a)
- spawn_ :: Par a -> Par (IVar a)
- spawnP :: NFData a => a -> Par (IVar a)
Documentation
A version that avoids an internal unsafePerformIO for calling
contexts that are already in the IO monad.
data IVar a
read the value in a IVar. The get can only return when the
value has been written by a prior or parallel put to the same
IVar.
put :: NFData a => IVar a -> a -> Par ()
put a value into a IVar. Multiple puts to the same IVar
are not allowed, and result in a runtime error.
put fully evaluates its argument, which therefore must be an
instance of NFData. The idea is that this forces the work to
happen when we expect it, rather than being passed to the consumer
of the IVar and performed later, which often results in less
parallelism than expected.
Sometimes partial strictness is more appropriate: see put_.
