ADA

I vaguely remembered when I learned the Ada programming language 20 years ago, there is a rendezvous feature in the language to enable multi-thread parallel programming. Can someone add something about ADA in this article? Kowloonese 07:19, 16 Sep 2003 (UTC)

I found this ADA article about Rendezvous: https://www2.adacore.com/gap-static/GNAT_Book/html/node22.htm DotnetCarpenter (talk) 01:41, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Apple's Rendez-Vous

There is also Apple's discovery service called rendez-vous. The linux implementation is called ZeroConf I think ( http://www.zeroconf.org/ )

Actually the definition sounds much like the Ada (programming language)[ rendezvous. So rendezvous in multi-threading / multi processing seems to be a more universal concept.
