<br><br>I am curious if anyone on this list has done any work<br>with the language Erlang and/or considers it viable<br>for scientific apps. It seems to be quite mature, has<br>well developed 'process' based semantics with intrinsic message
<br>passing, is light-weight for multi-process creation,<br>support application-level fault tolerance (quite applicable<br>for failures in long computations...)<br>and is production level, though not well known in the US.
