CC++: A Declarative Concurrent Object-Oriented Programming Notation
K. Mani Chandy, Carl Kesselman · The MIT Press eBooks · 1993
CC++ is Compositional C++, a parallel object-oriented notation that consists of C++ with six extensions. The goals of the CC++ project are to provide a theory, notation and tools for developing reliable scalable concurrent program libraries, and to provide a framework for unifying: 1.distributed reactive systems, batch-oriented numeric and symbolic applications, and user-interface systems, 2.declarative programs and object-oriented imperative programs, and 3.deterministic and nondeterministic programs. This paper is a brief description of the motivation for CC++, the extensions to C++, a few examples of CC++ programs with reasoning about their correctness, and an evaluation of CC++ in the context of other research on concurrent computation. A short description of C++ is provided.
