(CML) A concurrent extension of sml/nj written by J. Reppy at cornell university in 1990. CML supports dynamic thread creation and synchronous message passing on typed channels. Threads are implemented using first-class continuations. First-class synchronous operations allow users to tailor their synchronisation abstractions for their application. CML also supports both stream i/o and low-level I/O in an integrated fashion. Latest version: 0.9.8, as of 1994-12-21, requires SML/NJ 0.75 or later. . E-mail: <[email protected]> (bugs).
