<longdescription>
This library offers an alternative parallel programming
API to that provided by the @parallel@ package.
The 'Par' monad allows the simple description of
parallel computations, and can be used to add
parallelism to pure Haskell code. The basic API
is straightforward: the monad supports forking
and simple communication in terms of 'IVar's.
The library comes with an efficient work-stealing
implementation, but the internals are also
exposed so that you can build your own scheduler
if necessary.
Examples of use can be found in the examples/ directory
of the source package.
