Abstract
The paper presents a structuring language, The paper presents a structuring language, Darwin Darwin , which allows distributed , which allows distributed and parallel programs to be structured in terms of groups of process instances and parallel programs to be structured in terms of groups of process instances which communicate by message passing. In addition to expressing static which communicate by message passing. In addition to expressing static structure, Darwin can be used to express structures which change dynamically structure, Darwin can be used to express structures which change dynamically as execution progresses. The paper presents a set of examples illustrating the as execution progresses. The paper presents a set of examples illustrating the use of Darwin in constructing parallel programs. Since processes can be use of Darwin in constructing parallel programs. Since processes can be considered to be an abstraction of physical processors, Darwin can also be used considered...
