In recent years, programming language features such as lightweight threads have gained popularity in the software development workflow. Our research takes a critical look at these recent trends, rethinking them through an academic lens. We propose a construct called "smart assignment," supported by rewriting semantics, which enables a novel parallel-by-default programming paradigm. We present a new programming language—RE-LANG—that implements this feature. Specifically, we demonstrate how the design philosophy of RE-LANG makes imperative, parallel programming more developer-friendly. We discuss the implementation of the language and showcase performance benchmarks, as well as overhead analysis, to demonstrate its efficiency.Doctor of P...
