Popis:	One of the most attractive features of functional programming languages is their suitability for programming parallel computers. This paper is devoted to discussion of such a claim. Firstly, parallel functional programming is discussed from the programmer’s point of view. Secondly, since most parallel functional language implementations are based on the concept of graph reduction, the issues raised by graph reduction are discussed. Finally, the paper concludes with a case study of a particular parallel graph reduction machine and a survey of other parallel architectures.
