Chapel Public Release Goals

The goals of this release are as follows:

  • to give the general public an opportunity to see the state and evolution of the Chapel implementation first-hand

  • to get feedback on the Chapel language and its ongoing implementation (please direct to [email protected] or the community mailing lists hosted at SourceForge)

  • to demonstrate Chapel's base language features

  • to demonstrate Chapel's task parallel features in a multi-threaded, multi-locale setting.

  • to demonstrate Chapel's data parallel features via a combination of

    (i) a multi-threaded, single-locale implementation of ranges and irregular domains and arrays;

    (ii) a multi-threaded, multi-locale implementation of regular domains and arrays using some standard distributions.

For more detailed notes on what is or is not supported in this release, refer to the Issues list on GitHub (https://github.com/chapel-lang/chapel/issues).
