A Tutorial Introduction to Occam Programming
There is an increasing trend towards parallel computing both in business and in the scientific and engineering fields. Occam is rapidly being seen as an effective solution to the problem of programming concurrent systems of all kinds, and as a powerful tool for describing convurrent algorithms.
The aim of the book is to introduce the reader to concurrent programming using the occam language. Ir provides examples of occam programming and discusses the novel concepts which occam employes. The second half of the book provides a formal description of the occam language.
