FP2
     
        Functional Parallel Programming.  A {term rewriting} language
        which unifies {functional programming} and {parallel
        programming}.  Every object is a term and every computation is
        done by rewriting.  Rewrite rules are used to specify
        {algebraic data type}s and parallel processes.
