<p>&quot;This paper describes the evolution of language
features for multiprogramming from event queues and
semaphores to critical regions and monitors.&quot; Includes
analysis of why <i>events</i> are considered error-prone.
Also noteworthy because of an introductory quotation from
Christopher Alexander; Brinch Hansen was years ahead of
others in recognizing pattern concepts applied to software
too.</p>
