Smedema, C H

A description is given of three mechanisms for synchronization and communication in CHILL, a language for programming of telecommunication switching systems. These mechanisms take place: (1) through shared data areas, namely regions together with associated operations on queues called events; (2) through a mailbox-type mechanism called buffers; and (3) through a kind of communication channel between process instances called signals. 6 references.
