Prioritised Dynamic Communicating Processes: Part 2

This paper illustrates the work presented in 'Part I', giving additional examples of use of channel-types, extended rendezvous and FORKs that lean towards real applications. Also presented are a number of other additions and extensions to the occam language that correct, tidy up or complete facilities that have long existed. These include fixing the PRI ALT bug, allowing an unconditional SKIP guard as the last in a PRI ALT, replicator STEP sizes, run-time computed PAR replication counts, RESULT parameters and abbreviations, nested PROTOCOL definitions, inline array constructors and parallel recursion. All are available in the latest release (1.3.3) of KRoC, freely available (GPL/open source) from: http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/projects/ofa/kroc/ .
