....We believe that the construct is in fact as general as needed, since it can easily be used to implement such high level communication operations as Reppy s higher order concurrency [18] Unfortunately, it is difficult to support send operations in a non deterministicchoice construct. Silberschatz [22] and Van de Snepscheut [23] examined cases where the construct is easy to implement if only certain processes use it. Inefficient implementations of the general construct include those that use global information (e.g. a central coordinator) 19] require an unbounded amount of time [9] or use ....

....blocked will never be chosen. Each of these differences makes implementing events quite difficult. Reppy gives a coroutine implementation [31] but many of the difficulties arise in the presence of true parallelism. In particular, the last problem has been a topic of quite a bit of research [8, 34, 35]. Nevertheless, we have been able to implement events using the thread interface [27] The fact that so many higher level constructs can be efficiently implemented in terms of the thread interface (with help from SML s first class functions, polymorphic types, and module system) reinforces our ....
