I see that the Glasgow Haskell compiler has a parallel mode which can be used with PVM and there is interesting work with pH at MIT. Does anyone know of any other work on implicitly parallelizing functional programs for fine grain parallel execution?

At Brooklyn College, we are working on a version of Parallel Haskell that
does not require PVM. Instead, we use Internet protocols and the Mosix
patches to Linux.
