Abstract

The paper discusses an implementation of POOL-X that aims to be all of available, reliable, portable, modifiable and efficient. This implementation consists of both compiler and run-time-support system. In order to attain the stated goals, the system is kept as simple as possible. Design trade-offs are be discussed, and the final system is evaluated.
