Gambit versus Python+GMP: Timing for Chudnovskys' algorithm for pi
by Bradley Lucier 07 Avr '22

07 Avr '22

Bakul Shah wrote a particularly elegant Scheme program for Chudnovskys' algorithm for pi based on the Common Lisp program here: https://bitbucket.org/tarballs_are_good/numericl/src/5fe8fe7089f48ab1c8a388… Nick Craig-Wood wrote a Python program using the GMP multiprecision library that appears to use exactly the same algorithm here: http://www.craig-wood.com/nick/articles/pi-chudnovsky/ I modified both programs a bit and include them here. They time the calculation of $10^n$ digits of pi for $n=1,2,3,4,5,6,7$. The results are heine:~/programs/gambiteer/gambit> !py python pi_chudnovsky_bs_gmpy.py 31415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923078164062862089986280348253421170679 ('chudnovsky_gmpy_mpz_bs: digits', 10, 'time', 1.0967254638671875e-05) ('chudnovsky_gmpy_mpz_bs: digits', 100, 'time', 3.0040740966796875e-05) Last 5 digits 70679 OK ('chudnovsky_gmpy_mpz_bs: digits', 1000, 'time', 0.00025582313537597656) Last 5 digits 01989 OK ('chudnovsky_gmpy_mpz_bs: digits', 10000, 'time', 0.00386810302734375) Last 5 digits 75678 OK ('chudnovsky_gmpy_mpz_bs: digits', 100000, 'time', 0.0834801197052002) Last 5 digits 24646 OK ('chudnovsky_gmpy_mpz_bs: digits', 1000000, 'time', 1.655979871749878) Last 5 digits 58151 OK ('chudnovsky_gmpy_mpz_bs: digits', 10000000, 'time', 30.67442488670349) Last 5 digits 55897 OK heine:~/programs/gambiteer/gambit> gsi chud1.scm Chudnovsky's algorithm using binary splitting in Gambit Scheme: digits 10, CPU time: 0..

Chudnovsky's algorithm using binary splitting in Gambit Scheme: digits 10000000, CPU time: 98.612. Last 5 digits 55897. So it appears that for this algorithm applied to large integers, GMP's bignum routines are about 3-4 times as fast as Gambit's bignum routines. Not so bad. For smaller bignums, GMP has a bigger advantage. The C program gmp-chudnovsky.c includes certain optimizations to this basic algorithm: http://gmplib.org/pi-with-gmp.html ftp://ftp.gmplib.org/pub/misc/gmp-chudnovsky.c On my machine, compiled with gcc -O3 -march=native -o gmp-chudnovsky gmp-chudnovsky.c -lgmp -lm the CPU times for 1,000,000 and 10,000,000 digits are 1.064 and 18.200 seconds, respectively. This is with a somewhat older machine model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8200 @ 2.33GHz running Ubuntu 13.04 with heine:~/programs/gambiteer/gambit> gcc -v Using built-in specs.

object->u8vector as tree shaker?
by Bradley Lucier 29 Mar '15

29 Mar '15

Marc: It's not quite clear to me what object->u8vector does with procedures. I was thinking that if it pulled in all the functions not in system libraries, then it could be used as a tree-shaker. This is only a vague thought, but I find its interesting. Brad

[TFP 2015] 1st call for papers
by Peter Achten 19 Déc '14

19 Déc '14

----------------------------- C A L L F O R P A P E R S ----------------------------- ======== TFP 2015 =========== 16th Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming June 3-5, 2015 Inria Sophia Antipolis, France http://tfp2015.inria.fr/ The symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an international forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of functional programming, taking a broad view of current and future trends in the area. It aspires to be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results, and other contributions (see below). Authors of draft papers will be invited to submit revised papers based on the feedback receive at the symposium. A post-symposium refereeing process will then select a subset of these articles for formal publication. The selected revised papers are expected to be published as a Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) volume. TFP 2015 will be the main event of a pair of functional programming events. TFP 2015 will be accompanied by the International Workshop on Trends in Functional Programming in Education (TFPIE), which will take place on June 2nd. The TFP symposium is the heir of the successful series of Scottish Functional Programming Workshops. Previous TFP symposia were held in * Edinburgh (Scotland) in 2003; * Munich (Germany) in 2004; * Tallinn (Estonia) in 2005; * Nottingham (UK) in 2006; * New York (USA) in 2007; * Nijmegen (The Netherlands) in 2008; * Komarno (Slovakia) in 2009; * Oklahoma (USA) in 2010; * Madrid (Spain) in 2011; * St. Andrews (UK) in 2012; * Provo (Utah, USA) in 2013; * and in Soesterberg (The Netherlands) in 2014. For further general information about TFP please see the TFP homepage. (http://www.tifp.org/). == INVITED SPEAKERS == TFP is pleased to announce talks by the following two invited speakers: * Laurence Rideau is a researcher at INRIA and is interested in the semantics of programming languages , the formal methods, and the verification tools for programs and mathematical proofs. She participated in the beginnings of the Compcert project (certified compiler), and is part of the Component Mathematical team in the MSR-INRIA joint laboratory, who performed the formalization of the Feit-Thompson theorem successfully. Thirty years ago, computers barged in mathematics with the famous proof of the Four Color Theorem. Initially limited to simple calculation, their role is now expanding to the reasoning whose complexity is beyond the capabilities of most humans, as the proof of the classification of finite simple groups. We present our large collaborative adventure around the formalization of the Feit-Thompson theorem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feit%E2%80%93Thompson_theorem) that is a first step to the classification of finite groups and that uses a palette of methods and techniques that range from formal logic to software (and mathematics) engineering. * Sam Aaron (?) == SCOPE == The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various routes. As part of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore identify the following five article categories. High-quality articles are solicited in any of these categories: Research Articles: leading-edge, previously unpublished research work Position Articles: on what new trends should or should not be Project Articles: descriptions of recently started new projects Evaluation Articles: what lessons can be drawn from a finished project Overview Articles: summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject Articles must be original and not simultaneously submitted for publication to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming: theoretical, implementation-oriented, or experience-oriented. Applications of functional programming techniques to other languages are also within the scope of the symposium. Topics suitable for the symposium include: Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing Functional programming in the cloud High performance functional computing Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs Dependently typed functional programming Validation and verification of functional programs Debugging and profiling for functional languages Functional programming in different application areas: security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded systems, global computing, grids, etc. Interoperability with imperative programming languages Novel memory management techniques Program analysis and transformation techniques Empirical performance studies Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages (Embedded) domain specific languages New implementation strategies Any new emerging trend in the functional programming area If you are in doubt on whether your article is within the scope of TFP, please contact the TFP 2015 program chair, Manuel Serrano. == BEST PAPER AWARDS == To reward excellent contributions, TFP awards a prize for the best paper accepted for the formal proceedings. TFP traditionally pays special attention to research students, acknowledging that students are almost by definition part of new subject trends. A student paper is one for which the authors state that the paper is mainly the work of students, the students are listed as first authors, and a student would present the paper. A prize for the best student paper is awarded each year. In both cases, it is the PC of TFP that awards the prize. In case the best paper happens to be a student paper, that paper will then receive both prizes. == SPONSORS == TFP is financially supported by ?????????????????? == PAPER SUBMISSIONS == Acceptance of articles for presentation at the symposium is based on a lightweight peer review process of extended abstracts (4 to 10 pages in length) or full papers (20 pages). The submission must clearly indicate which category it belongs to: research, position, project, evaluation, or overview paper. It should also indicate which authors are research students, and whether the main author(s) are students. A draft paper for which ALL authors are students will receive additional feedback by one of the PC members shortly after the symposium has taken place. We use EasyChair for the refereeing process. Papers must be submitted at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tfp2015 Papers must be written in English, and written using the LNCS style. For more information about formatting please consult the Springer LNCS web site: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0 == IMPORTANT DATES == Submission of draft papers: March 17, 2015 Notification: March 24, 2015 Registration: April 7, 2015 TFP Symposium: June 3-5, 2015 Student papers feedback: June 9, 2015 Submission for formal review: July 1, 2015 Notification of acceptance: September 8, 2015 Camera ready paper: October 8, 2015 == PROGRAM COMMITTEE == Janis Voigtländer University of Bonn, DE Scott Owens University of Kent, UK Neil Sculthorpe Swansea University, UK Colin Runciman University of York, UK Manuel Serrano Inria (PC chair), FR Rinus Plasmeijer University of Nijmegen, NL Tomas Petricek University of Cambridge, UK Marco T.

port setting arguments with syntax-case enabled
by Chris Vine 07 Déc '14

07 Déc '14

The following works fine without the syntax-rules/syntax-case macro expander enabled: (open-vector-pipe (list direction: 'input) (list direction: 'output)) However if the syntax-case expander is enabled, compilation generates a warning that 'direction:' is undefined and runtime fails with: *** ERROR -- (Argument 1) VECTOR or port settings expected (open-vector-pipe '(#!unbound input) '(#!unbound output)) This also works without the syntax-case expander: (open-vector-pipe (list 'direction: 'input) (list 'direction: 'output)) but fails with the syntax-case expander enabled with a different error: *** ERROR -- (Argument 1) VECTOR or port settings expected (open-vector-pipe '(|direction:| input) '(|direction:| output)) I am using gambit-c 4.7.3. Is there any workaround for this? Chris

LOPSTR is open to contributions in logic-based program development in any language paradigm. LOPSTR has a reputation for being a lively, friendly forum for presenting and discussing work in progress. Formal proceedings are produced only after the symposium so that authors can incorporate this feedback in the published papers. The 25th International Symposium on Logic-based Program Synthesis and Transformation (LOPSTR 2015) will be held at the University of Siena, Siena, Italy; previous symposia were held in Canterbury, Madrid, Leuven, Odense, Hagenberg, Coimbra, Valencia, Lyngby, Venice, London, Verona, Uppsala, Madrid, Paphos, London, Venice, Manchester, Leuven, Stockholm, Arnhem, Pisa, Louvain-la-Neuve, and Manchester. LOPSTR 2015 will be co-located with PPDP 2015 (International ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming). Topics of interest cover all aspects of logic-based program development, all stages of the software life cycle, and issues of both programming-in-the-small and programming-in-the-large. Both full papers and extended abstracts describing applications in these areas are especially welcome. Contributions are welcome on all aspects of logic-based program development, including, but not limited to: * synthesis * transformation * specialization * composition * optimization * inversion * specification * analysis and verification * testing and certification * program and model manipulation * transformational techniques in SE * applications and tools Survey papers that present some aspects of the above topics from a new perspective, and application papers that describe experience with industrial applications are also welcome. Papers must describe original work, be written and presented in English, and must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal, conference, or workshop with refereed proceedings. Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings may be submitted (please contact the PC chair in case of questions). Important Dates Abstract submission: April 6, 2015 Paper/Extended abstract submission: April 13, 2015 Notification: May 25, 2015 Camera-ready (for electronic pre-proceedings): June 15, 2015 Symposium: July 13-15, 2015 Submission Guidelines Authors should submit an electronic copy of the paper (written in English) in PDF, formatted in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science style. Each submission must include on its first page the paper title; authors and their affiliations; contact author's email; abstract; and three to four keywords which will be used to assist the PC in selecting appropriate reviewers for the paper. Page numbers should appear on the manuscript to help the reviewers in writing their report. Submissions cannot exceed 15 pages including references but excluding well-marked appendices not intended for publication. Reviewers are not required to read the appendices, and thus papers should be intelligible without them. Papers should be submitted via the Easychair submission website for LOPSTR 2015, which you can access through the website of LOPSTR 2015. Proceedings The formal post-conference proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series (to be confirmed). Full papers can be directly accepted for publication in the formal proceedings, or accepted only for presentation at the symposium and inclusion in informal proceedings. After the symposium, all authors of extended abstracts and full papers accepted only for presentation will be invited to revise and/or extend their submissions in the light of the feedback solicited at the symposium. Then, after another round of reviewing, these revised papers may also be published in the formal proceedings. Special journal issue After the symposium, a selection of the best papers will be invited to a special issue of a primary computer science journal. The submissions to the special issue must be substantial extensions of the proceedings versions and will undergo the usual journal reviewing process.
