Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce the release of our new parallel-programming library, LVish:

    hackage.haskell.org/package/lvish

It provides a "Par" monad similar to the monad-par package, but generalizes the model to include data-structures other than single-assignment variables (IVars).  For example, it has lock-free concurrent data structures for Sets and Maps, which are constrained to only grow monotonically during a given "runPar" (to retain determinism).  This is based on work described in our upcoming POPL 2014 paper:

Cheers,
