Abstract:

Programming really complex and flexible parallel process systems in the Helios(TM) environment forces the programmer to work on the error-prone and complicated low level of socket communication. We have developed a library which provides the main features of the well-known CSP paradigm for usage in combination with standard C programming under Helios(TM). The overall functionality and the essentials of the implementation concepts for the MCSP library are described in this paper.
