Diseases spread over temporal networks of interaction events between individuals. Structures these hold the keys to understanding epidemic propagation. One early concept literature aid in discussing structures is concurrency -- quantifying individuals' tendency form time-overlapping "partnerships". Although conflicting evaluations and an overabundance operational definitions have marred history...

In the paper the authors present the defininition and implementation of a concurrent language MP (message passer) which is aimed at programming embedded multi-microprocessor systems. The novel features of the language include the ability to program and develop the entire distributed system as a single unit, and the provision of simple restricted concurrency constructs that make such systems mod...

Embedded systems require control of many concurrent real-time activities, leading to system designs which feature multiple hardware peripherals with each providing a specific, dedicated service. These peripherals increase system size, cost, weight, power and design time.Software thread integration (STI) provides low-cost thread concurrency on general-purpose processors by automatically interlea...

One of the most important decisions about the architecture of a server program is its concurrency mechanisms. However, a good concurrency model for general-purpose server programs is increasingly difficult to conceive as the runtime conditions are hard to predict. In this work, we advocate that the concurrency code is to be decoupled from server programs. To enable such separation, we propose a...

ABSTRACT The instrument of concurrency, whereby UK regulatory authorities share and often, in practice, lead the application competition policy, is an important feature law regime. Several studies examined its pros cons from a theoretical perspective. This first article to take different approach critically assesses Ofcom’s concurrent powers telecoms sector. review identifies number shortfalls ...
