Parallel processor architecture and an open-source programming language for workloads that branch, search and rewrite.
Parallel computing through graph rewrites
Tendrils is developing processors around interaction nets, a model of computation that represents programs as graphs. Independent parts of a graph can be rewritten concurrently, giving the company a way to pursue parallel execution beyond the sequential instruction streams used by conventional CPUs.
Its open-source language and toolchain, Vine, let developers explore the model while the processor architecture is still in development. The Cambridge company targets branching workloads such as search, simulation, compilers and proof checking; its software is available to try before the hardware is ready.
