Bend is a massively parallel, high-level programming language.
|
|
|
|
Unlike low-level alternatives like CUDA and Metal, Bend has the feeling and
|
|
features of expressive languages like Python and Haskell, including fast object
|
|
allocations, higher-order functions with full closure support, unrestricted
|
|
recursion, even continuations. Yet, it runs on massively parallel hardware like
|
|
GPUs, with near-linear speedup based on core count, and zero explicit parallel
|
|
annotations: no thread spawning, no locks, mutexes, atomics. Bend is powered by
|
|
the HVM2 runtime.
