deliverable:
Well, I'm a bit suspicious if the top references on Haskell concurrency are either research papers or compiler manual sections. How about some good ol' bundles of them codes to peruse and take example from? E.g., dining philosophers?
The point was that there are *lots* of examples out there :) Typing 'concurrency' into the http://haskell.org wiki search box gives me: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Concurrency_demos http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Concurrency_demos/Zeta http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Shootout/Cheap_concurrency http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Concurrency_demos/Two_reader_threads http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Libraries_and_tools/Concurrency_and_paral... ... A book chapter on concurrency in Haskell with software transactional memory appeared just a few weeks ago: http://research.microsoft.com/~simonpj/tmp/beautiful.ps And of course the very fast examples on the shootout: http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=chameneos&lang=ghc&id=0 http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=message&lang=all Another good resource for simple concurrency tutorials is the 'Awkward Squad': http://research.microsoft.com/%7Esimonpj/Papers/marktoberdorf Enjoy! Concurrency in Haskell is both fun and rich, since we have: explicit lightweight threads: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/Control-Concurrent.ht... symmetric multiprocessor support: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/current/docs/users_guide/sec-using-smp.html implicit parallelism: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/Control-Parallel-Stra... software transactional memory: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Software_transactional_memory locks: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/Control-Concurrent-MV... concurrent channels: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/Control-Concurrent-Ch... transparently parallel arrays: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC/Data_Parallel_Haskell user level threads and scheduling: http://www.seas.upenn.edu/~lipeng/homepage/unify.html And more! As usual, http://haskell.org is the place to start. Regards, Don
