Version 2.0

Version 2.0 of ePython which supports an imperative version of Python with full memory management & garbage collection. Over version 1.0 this includes numerous bug fixes and new features. The main feature is the ability to offload functions in "full" Python codes (running in any Python interpreter) to the Epiphany cores by simply decorating them with the offload directive.

Examples and documentation has been updated to reflect the updates in this version.

Version 1.0

Version 1.0 of ePython as pre-installed on Parallella boards with 2016.11 Parabuntu release.

Version 1.0 of ePython supports an imperative version of Python with full memory management & garbage collection. Codes are run directly via the ePython command on the Epiphany and support for three types of parallelism (message passing, shared memory and task based) is available via importable modules. Examples and tutorials give an illustration of the major features of ePython.
