distributed

Library to provide Erlang style distributed computations. This library is inspired by Cloud Haskell.

Primitives for spawning processes (in the Erlang sense) either remotely or locally, monitoring/unmonitoring spawned processes, sending, receiving, broadcasting messages to those processes. Unlike Erlang, the messages that are sent between processes are typed.

Installation

The core library, lwt implementation, and uwt implementation are available via OPAM:

$ opam install distributed

$ opam install distributed-lwt

$ opam install distributed-uwt
