Exploring lua for concurrent programming

Introduction Regardless of its growing importance, concurrent programming is still mostly based on dated models. Constructions like semaphores [Dijkstra 1983], conditional critical regions [Hoare 1972], guards [Dijkstra 1975], and monitors [Hansen1974, Hoare 1973] were all originally designed for operating systems...
