Abstract

We develop a nature-inspired generic programming language for parallel algorithms, one that works for all data structures and control structures. Any parallel algorithm satisfying intuitively-appealing postulates can be modeled by a collection of cells, each of which is an abstract state machine, augmented with the ability to spawn new cells. All cells run the same algorithm and communicate via a shared global memory.
