Communication and Concurrency Milner R.
Publisher: PH

The serial/parallel and sequential/concurrent characterization are orthogonal. If light-weight, they can be a highly scalable approach to concurrency. An example of this is in digital communication. Concurrency introduces indeterminacy. The goal of this work is to introduce a common formalized framework for current research in this area and to eliminate shortcomings of existing models of concurrency. Is particularly simple given that no inter-thread communication is necessary (beyond that which is already provided by the solution). Milner was an ACM Turing Award winner and his main contributions were a formal theory of concurrent communicating processes and, more recently, a category-theoretic account of hyperlinks and embeddings, his so-called theory of bigraphs. CPS and channel passing concurrency. Fortunately, many concurrency problems can be cast as producer-consumer problems. As François-Régis mentioned in the previous post (hey, thanks for taking over and making the show go on I'm on holidays now. The pool of worker threads services the Actors efficiently, allowing high exploitation of available hardware concurrency. Yes, but the Communication in the actor model (in which actors are directly addressed, as opposed to channel-based communications) also resembles continuation passing style. When threads share resources, communication between Threads is important to coordinate their efforts. In order to communicate, typically we serialize the message contents and send to the subscriber. Map/reduce, concurrency and communications were among key concepts that consistently popped up during OSCON's Emerging Languages Camp. Sessions: handling state, communication & concurrency in Opa.
