ABSTRACT: In this paper, a cloud system being under development at the Institute of Informatics Systems in Novosibirsk as a system of functional programming for supporting of cloud supercomputing is considered. The system provides means to write and debug functional programs regardless target architectures on low-cost devices as well as to translate them into optimized parallel programs, appropriate to the target execution platforms, and then execute on high performance parallel computers without extensive rewriting and debugging.
KEYWORDS: Cloud supercomputing; functional programming; optimizing cross compilation, parallel programming.
