Esterel is a new parallel programming language based on a model of perfectly synchronous parallelism and communication. Because this model is naturally deterministic, it provides an excellent framework for the modular decomposition of programs that engage in complex patterns of deterministic interaction, such as protocol entities. Furthermore, because the Esterel compiler performs all the scheduling and synchronization at compile-time, modular with lots of subprocesses and internal communication can be just as efficient as monolithic sequential state machines. |
