I presented a talk on this at Trollhattan, from which the main comment was about critical sections. We decided that it was impossible to program this from the features that we had at that time, so we have added two new intrinsics, start_critical and end_critical to provide this feature. Other significal changes since Trollhattan involve synchronization and I/O. The paper is available as the report RAL-TR-1998-060, by ftp from matisa.cc.rl.ac.uk in the file pub/reports/nrRAL98060.ps.gz Best wishes, John.
