I am playing around with the idea of implementing a statically
allocated and scheduled parallel functional language for hard
real-time embedded systems. I know of SAFL, which is a statically
allocated functional language for hardware design, but are there other
systems I should be aware of?


The big idea is to provide the programmer with an illusion of
lightweight threads so that one could e.g. write a thread to poll a
single pin in a microcontroller, and to implement the threads by
interleaving their computations at compile time into a single
imperative program.
