Implementation Summaries
Name: SPUR Lisp
Standard: Common Lisp subset
Comments:
Garbage collection via generation garbage collection with hardware support.
Version:
V1.0, free. Sequential Common Lisp currently runs on a simulator for the
SPUR multiprocessor. Actual hardware for SPUR is expected later this year.
SPUR Lisp on actual hardware is expected
sometime next year. Availability of
SPUR Lisp will depend on availability of SPUR hardware.
Support:
none, sources available
Hardware:
SPUR (an experimental multiprocessor being designed at Berkeley)
Software:
SPRITE and Unix (SPRITE is a Unix-like distributed operating system
available on Suns and SPUR)
