Talk Title

Many Ways to Concur

Summary

Easy concurrency is one of the main prophesied benefits of the modern functional programming (FP) languages. But the implementation of concurrency differs widely between different FP languages. In this talk, we shall explore the methods and primitives of concurrency across three FP languages: Haskell, Erlang, and Clojure (with core.async).

We shall learn about and compare the trade-offs between:

the green threads and STM channels oriented concurrency of Haskell
everything-is-a-process and message-passing actor pattern of Erlang
macro-based CSP of Clojure/core.async

Time Required

45 minutes
