We present ingpu, a GPU-based evaluator for interaction nets that heavily utilizes their potential for parallel evaluation. We discuss advantages and challenges of the ongoing implementation of ingpu and compare its performance to existing interaction nets evaluators.
We extend the textual calculus for interaction nets by generic rules and propose constraints to preserve uniform confluence. Furthermore, we discuss the implementation of generic rules in the language inets, which is based on the lightweight interaction nets calculus.
Reduction rules in interaction nets are constrained to pattern match exactly one argument at a time. Consequently, a programmer has to introduce auxiliary rules to perform more sophisticated matches. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a system for interaction nets which allows nested pattern matching on interaction rules. We achieve a system that provides convenient ways to express interaction net programs without defining auxiliary rules.
