FRANZ PLANS LISP UNDER UNIX FOR CRAY SUPERCOMPUTERS…

Cray Research Inc has signed Franz Inc, Berkeley, California to do an implementation of Common Lisp for Cray supercomputers under the Unicos implementation of Unix System V. Franz believes that its Allegro CL, already available on minis and mainframes under Unix, will be the first commercially-supported Lisp for a supercomputer. Allegro CL includes hooks that enable Fortran and C routines and programs to be integrated into the Lisp environment. The company hopes to have the Cray version out in November.
