Well-Typed Communication Protocols
Featuring Duncan Coutts
Concurrency is still hard. Building distributed applications using message passing is still hard. Application-specific message passing protocols are often specified in an informal and ad-hoc way (if at all), with very little support from the programming language or tools. This sets things up for...
