OPAL Project
Researches programming environment where advanced language concepts and formal development methods are used to make production-quality software. Strongly typed, higher-order, strict, pure FL; so can be classed with ML, Haskell, and other modern FLs. But also has unique algebraic flavor in the tradition of languages such as CIP-L, and Obj.

What the Hell are Monads?
Basic introduction to monads, monadic programming, and I/O.

Aldor
Functional language in which types are first class values. Normal functions returning types reproduce the features of template classes of other languages. Links to many projects around the world based on Aldor.

BitC Language Specification
Compiled, garbage collected; merges ideas and syntax (impure s-expression) of functional languages (Lisp Sheme) with close hardware interaction of low-level languages (C). Emits C source code.
http://www.coyotos.org/docs/bitc/spec.html

FISh
A novel functional language that claims to be faster than C in some cases.
http://linus.socs.uts.edu.au/~cbj/FISh/

Eden
Parallel functional language to program reactive systems and parallel algorithms using distributed memory. Extends Haskell, but overrules lazy evaluation whenever needed to support parallelism.
http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~eden...

Lemon
Functional language with inductive and coinductive types. Based on simply-typed lambda calculus augmented with sums, products, and mu and nu constructors for least (inductive) and greatest (coinductive) solutions to recursive type equations.
http://www.cis.ksu.edu/~bhoward/lemon.html

Cayenne
A Haskell-like language with a powerful type system based on dependent types.
http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~augustss/cayenn...

Readscheme.org - Resources for Functional Programming
A variety of research resources on functional programming languages, implementation, and applications of functional programming languages.

Functional Programming in the Real World
Lists functional programs written primarily to perform to real-world tasks. Has pure programs (no side effects) and impure (some use of side effects). Languages: Caml, Clean, Erlang, Haskell, Miranda, Scheme, Standard ML.
http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/wadler/realw...

The Pizza Compiler
Java extension with functional features: generics (parametric polymorphism), function pointers (first-class (higher-order) functions), class cases and pattern matching (algebraic (data)types).
http://pizzacompiler.sourceforge.net/

PLAN: A Packet Language for Active Networks
Resource-bounded functional language that uses a form of remote procedure call to realize active networking. Part of the SwitchWare Project. Descriptions, documents, downloads, contacts, links.
http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~dsl/PLAN/

ICFP 2002
The 2002 International Conference on Functional Programming covers the entire spectrum of functional programming, from practice to theory, and from established functional programming languages (Scheme, ML, Haskell) to novel language designs and to the functional aspects of object-oriented or concurrent languages. October 4-6, 2002 Pittsburgh, PA, USA.
http://icfp2002.cs.brown.edu/

Joy
Pure functional language based on function composition rather than application; concatenative language, very like Forth, inputs and outputs stacks, but with higher-level data types and sound mathematical foundation. [Open Source, BSD]
http://www.latrobe.edu.au/philosophy/phimv...

NESL
A functional parallel language. Tutorial, source code, algorithm library, animations, and reference manual.
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~scandal/nesl.html

Charity
Functional, categorical language, by University of Calgary, Canada. Innovative organization: based on theory of strong categorical datatypes divided into 2 subclasses: inductive (built up by constructors in the familiar way), and coinductive (broken down by destructors).
http://pll.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/charity1/www/h...

CDuce
An XML centric programming language with higher order, semantic subtyping, pattern matching and overloading, and open source implementation.
http://www.cduce.org

Arbol
Functional language developed mainly for Genetic Programming experiments. Inspired by ideas of other small, esoteric languages (Unlambda, Lazy K, Joy, Iota, Zot, ...), and pure functional Haskell.
