An early and important pioneering computer in the history of artificial intelligence.

CADR Lisp, developed by MIT's AI Lab in the 1970s, was a dialect of Lisp specifically designed for use on the CADR (CAll-Directed Register machine) computer. It incorporated advanced features like native support for parallel processing and efficient memory management techniques, making it well-suited for complex symbolic computation tasks. CADR Lisp contributed significantly to the field of artificial intelligence and symbolic computation, influencing subsequent developments in programming languages and computational methodologies.
