In my experience, there's an academic world, and a practical world, and never the 'twain shall meet.
The academic world knew without experience that higher-level structured concurrency was the way to go. It took the practical industry decades of unmaintanable pthread messes to learn the same lesson, but they ultimately learned it.
- rumcajz 9y agoAny interesting links to academic research of higher-level structured concurrency?
- noelwelsh 9y agoHere's one interesting paper: http://www.csc.kth.se/~phaller/doc/haller16-scala.pdf http://www.csc.kth.se/~phaller/doc/haller16-scala.pdf Here's the general algorithm: 1. Find something interesting 2. Chase the references and read them. 3. Chase the citations (use Google Scholar) and read them, if they're relevant. You'll pretty soon have an understanding of the general approaches and issues. (If you throw "coroutine concurrency" into Google Scholar you'll very quickly find citations from the 80s discussing this model.)
