Concurrent attribute evaluation

Abstract This text presents an implementation of a concurrent attribute evaluator system. This system was developed with the main objective of allowing the implementation of several strategies of concurrent attribute evaluation and not to build a faster compiler to a specific case. The system is implemented in a tightly-coupled machine. One realistic compiler was built and the first results are discussed.
