concurrent processes. I am aware of semaphores and monitors as well as Dekkers algorithm. What I'm looking for I guess is to know if anyone uses things like sequencers and eventcounts and such in the real world. Sort of the lesser known methods that still are used commonly in actual real world systems. The desired responses to this vague query should consists of the name of the method, a one or two sentence description (or as short as possible) of the method, and any references to where I can find out more about the given method. Thanks in advance for any replies. Bob also known as: ud138985 at ndsuvm1 on bitnet
