Abstract
This masters thesis describes the design and implementation of, and the experiences with a multi-threaded and parallel runtime system for ERLANG. ERLANG is a declarative language with real-time properties, processes, fault-tolerance, distribution and dynamic code handling. It is very suitable for large complex control systems with fault-tolerance demands. The goals of this implementation are to obtain scalability with multiprocessor hardware, improve real-time properties, keep a portable and unified code base with the non-threaded system. Covered areas include major changes in the system from the previous, design decisions for system throughput, parallelism, real-time properties, general improvements and benchmarks. ERLANG was developed at the ERICSSON Computer Science Laboratory and is now gaining wide acceptance within ERICSSON. It is in widespread use since several years and is now a mature technology. ERLANG is the primary development language for several commercial core products...
