We present a novel high-level parallel programming model aimed at graphics processing units (GPUs). We embed GPU kernels as data-parallel array computations in the purely functional language Haskell. GPU and CPU computations can be freely interleaved with the type system tracking the two different modes of computation. The embedded language of array computations is sufficiently limited that our system can automatically extract these computations and compile them to efficient GPU code. In this paper, we outline our approach and present the results of a few preliminary benchmarks.
