Static interpretation of higher-order modules in Futhark: functional GPU programming in the large
Résumé
We present a higher-order module system for the purely functional data-parallel array language Futhark.
The module language has the property that it is completely eliminated at compile time, yet it serves as
a powerful tool for organizing libraries and complete programs. The presentation includes a static and a
dynamic semantics for the language in terms of, respectively, a static type system and a provably terminating
elaboration of terms into terms of an underlying target language. The development is formalised in Coq
using a novel encoding of semantic objects based on products, sets, and finite maps. The module language
features a unified treatment of module type abstraction and core language polymorphism and is rich enough
for expressing practical forms of module composition.
