distributed-static: Compositional, type-safe, polymorphic static values and closures
Towards Haskell in the Cloud (Epstein et al, Haskell
Symposium 2011) introduces the concept of static values:
values that are known at compile time. In a distributed
setting where all nodes are running the same executable,
static values can be serialized simply by transmitting a
code pointer to the value. This however requires special
compiler support, which is not yet available in ghc. We
can mimick the behaviour by keeping an explicit mapping
(RemoteTable) from labels to values (and making sure
that all distributed nodes are using the same
RemoteTable). In this module we implement this mimickry
and various extensions: type safety (including for
polymorphic static values) and compositionality.
