SR (programming language)
- SR (programming language)
SR (short for Synchronizing Resources) is a programming language designed for concurrent programming.
"Resources" encapsulate processes and the variables they share, and can be separately compiled. "Operations" provide the primary mechanism for process interaction.
SR provides a novel integration of the mechanisms for invoking and servicing operations. Consequently, it supports local and remote procedure call, rendezvous, message passing, dynamic process creation, multicast, semaphores and shared memory.
Version 2.2 has been ported to the Apollo, DECstation, Data General AViiON, HP 9000 Series 300, Multimax, NeXT, PA-RISC, RS/6000, Sequent Symmetry, SGI IRIS, Sun-3, Sun-4 and others.
