provided by the parallel package.
The 'Par' monad allows the simple description of parallel computations,
and can be used to add parallelism to pure Haskell code. The basic
API is straightforward: the monad supports forking and simple
communication in terms of 'IVar's.
The library comes with an efficient work-stealing implementation,
but the internals are also exposed so that you can build your own
scheduler if necessary.

This module is an interface module only. It provides a number of
type clasess, but not an implementation. The type classes separate
different levels of 'Par' functionality. See the "Control.Monad.Par.Class"
module for more details.
The monad-par library is one example of a concrete library providing
this interface.

Background: There exists a feature space for queues that extends
between:
* simple, single-ended, non-concurrent, bounded queues
* double-ended, threadsafe, growable queues
... with important points inbetween (such as
the queues used for work-stealing).
This package includes an interface for Deques that allows the
programmer to use a single API for all of the above, while using
the type-system to select an efficient implementation given the
requirements (using type families).
This package also includes a simple reference implementation based
on 'IORef' and "Data.Sequence".

it is enough to derive 'QuickAnnotate.Annotatable' and then use the
preprocessor (qapp). The package contains an example demonstrating
this procedure.

not support the usual parenthesized tuple syntax (which would be
"(a)" instead of "OneTuple a"). It
* has the expected laziness properties,
* can be pattern-matched,
* ships with instances for several standard type classes,
including all those supported by H98-standard tuples,
* requires no language extensions, except for hierarchical modules.

libivykis is a library for asynchronous I/O readiness notification.
It is a thin, portable wrapper around OS-provided mechanisms such as
kqueue(2) and poll(2).
this is a dependency of more recent versions of syslog-ng.
nPth is a non-preemptive threads implementation using an API very similar to
the one known from GNU Pth. It has been designed as a replacement of GNU Pth
for non-ancient operating systems. In contrast to GNU Pth is is based on the
system's standard threads implementation. Thus nPth allows the use of
libraries which are not compatible to GNU Pth.
