Abstract

This paper describes a generalized APL shared variable system which provides a communication facility for two or more APL programs. It is an extension of the system used in APLSV and can control the communication of more than two processors. Some of the system functions used in the system are borrowed from APLSV and some more are defined to simplify the control mechanism. These additional system functions can also be used to detect deadlocks that may occur when two or more processors communicate.
