  abstract=      "We propose ProcessJ as a new, more contemporary programming
     language
that supports process-oriented design, which raises
     the level of
abstraction and lowers the barrier of entry for
     parallel and
concurrent programming.  ProcessJ promises
     verifiability (e.g.,
deadlock detection), based on Hoare's
     CSP model of concurrency, and
existing model checkers like
     FDR. Process-oriented means processes
compose, unlike
     thread-based or asynchronous message-passing models
     of
concurrency; this means that programmers can
     incrementally define
larger and larger concurrent processes
     without concern for undesirable
nondeterminism or unexpected
     side effects. Processes at their lowest,
most granular level
     are sequential programs; there are no global
variables, so
     no race conditions, and the rules of parallel
composition
     are functional in nature, not imperative, and based on
     the
mathematically sound CSP process algebra. Collectively,
     these ideas
raise the level of abstraction for concurrency;
     they were successful
once before with the occam language and
     the Transputer. We believe
their time has come again, and
     will not go away, in this new age of
multi-core processors.
     Computers have finally caught up with CSP
     and
process-oriented design. We believe that ProcessJ can be
     the
programming language that provides a bridge from today's
     languages to
tomorrow's concurrent programs. Learning or
     teaching the programming
model and language will be greatly
     supported through the educational
part of the proposed
     project, which includes course templates and an
online
     teaching tool that integrates in-browser programming
     with
teaching material. Our efforts are encouraged by the
     forthcoming 2013
IEEE and ACM curricula guidelines, which
     for the first time include
concurrent programming as a core
     knowledge area at the undergraduate
level."
