Summary

The book covers the topic of concurrent programming using Concurrent ML (CML), an extension of the functional language Standard ML. The book is a practical 'how-to' book with applications for programmers interested in CML, but it also includes technical discussions of the language design issues behind CML.

Concurrent Programming in ML Summary

Concurrent Programming in ML by John H. Reppy (University of Chicago)

Concurrent Programming in ML focuses on the practical use of concurrency to implement naturally concurrent applications. In addition to a tutorial introduction to programming in Concurrent ML (CML), the book presents three extended examples using CML for practical systems programming: a parallel software build system, a simple concurrent window manager, and an implementation of distributed tuple spaces. CML, which is included as part of the SML of New Jersey (SML/NJ) distribution, combines the best features of concurrent programming and functional programming. This book also illustrates advanced SML programming techniques, and includes a chapter on the implementation of concurrency using features provided by the SML/NJ system. It will be of interest to programmers, students, and professional researchers working in computer language development.
