  Concurrent ML
  
     <language> (CML) A concurrent extension of SML/NJ written
     by J. Reppy at Cornell University in 1990.  CML supports
     dynamic thread creation and synchronous message passing on
     typed channels.  Threads are implemented using first-class
     continuations.  First-class synchronous operations allow
     users to tailor their synchronisation abstractions for their
     application.  CML also supports both stream I/O and
     low-level I/O in an integrated fashion.
  
     Latest version: 0.9.8, as of 1994-12-21, requires SML/NJ 0.75
     or later.
