How functional programming mattered [PDF]

open access: yesNational Science Review, 2015
In 1989 when functional programming was still considered a niche topic, Hughes wrote a visionary paper arguing convincingly ‘why functional programming matters’. More than two decades have passed. Has functional programming really mattered? Our answer is

Adaptive functional programming

ACM SIGPLAN Notices, 2002
An adaptive computation maintains the relationship between its input and output as the input changes. Although various techniques for adaptive computing have been proposed, they remain limited in their scope of applicability. We propose a general mechanism for adaptive computing that enables one to make any purely-functional program ...

Programming with Functional Memory

1994 International Conference on Parallel Processing (ICPP'94), 1994
Functional memory (FM) uses memory mapped reprogrammable field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) for fine-grained parallel processing. Multi-operand expressions are computed in combinational logic eliminating processor computation steps. FPGAs capture operands as memory is written, eliminating separate processor load-stores to pass operands.

Functional program testing

The IEEE Computer Society's Second International Computer Software and Applications Conference, 1978. COMPSAC '78., 1980
An approach to functional testing is described in which the design of a program is viewed as an integrated collection of functions. The selection of test data depends on the functions used in the design and on the value spaces over which the functions are defined.

When is a functional program not a functional program?

Proceedings of the fourth ACM SIGPLAN international conference on Functional programming, 1999
In an impure functional language, there are programs whose behaviour is completely functional (in that they behave extensionally on inputs), but the functions they compute cannot be written in the purely functional fragment of the language. That is, the class of programs with functional behaviour is more expressive than the usual class of pure ...
