Hello,

I've been surfing the Internet a lot now to find any kind of newgroup, discussion group, or mailing list about asynchronous programming or concurrent programming. To my despair I was out of luck. Does anybody have a hint for me? I really would like to discuss issues concerning asynchronous/concurrent programming with some people who know about it and its difficulties and challenges.

Thank you, Oliver

James Harris

Given that you have had no replies so far it's possible there are no
newsgroups aimed at what you want. I certainly don't know of any that
specifically match your requirements. Some suggestions that might
help:

If you want to discuss the design of programming language features to
support parallel programming this is a good newsgroup, i.e.
comp.lang.misc.

If you want to discuss parallel programming in certain languages or
under certain operating systems there are newsgroups to suit. Failing
that, comp.programming may be the only reasonable fall-back.

There is a Google group on flow-based programming. Not sure if that is
of interest. It may be too specific for what you want but the link is

http://groups.google.com/group/flow-based-programming

The only other thing I can think of is not related to discussion
groups. There are some surprisingly good videos on various subjects to
be found on the Internet: Youtube and a number of universities make
these available for free. If you are academically inclined there may
be some technical papers findable on Google Scholar (qv). And there
may be some helpful books on Amazon but I know these are not the
newsgroups you asked about.

HTH,
James
