This file describes some of the design decisions that were made during
|
||||
the multi-threading of the Prospero server, and the rationales for the
|
||||
decisions.
|
||||
|
||||
We decided to use the Posix threads library {pthreads) because:
|
||||
a) it was already becoming a standard; nothing else was.
|
||||
b) it had the needed functionality for our simple task
|
||||
c) a free implementation existed for our development environment, SunOS 4.1.3
|
||||
on the SPARC processor.
