SR (Synchronizing Resources) is a language for writing concurrent programs,
|
|
developed in the University of Arizona. The main language constructs are
|
|
resources and operations. Resources encapsulate processes and variables
|
|
they share; operations provide the primary mechanism for process interaction.
|
|
|
|
SR provides a novel integration of the mechanisms for invoking and servicing
|
|
operations. Consequently, all local and remote procedure call, rendezvous,
|
|
message passing, dynamic process creation, multicast, and semaphores are
|
|
supported. SR also supports shared global variables and operations. Has a
|
|
nice interface (X11 and xtango).
|
|
|
|
SR is the predecessor to the MPD programming language, which provides the
|
|
same capabilities using different syntax.
