All concepts in libpeak are not mine. The experimental parallel events |
| 6 |
|
|
handling part is. Libpeak uses now well known concepts for |
| 7 |
|
|
asynchronous I/O events which can be found in several open source |
| 8 |
|
|
"event libraries". The runtime system is inspired from the open source |
| 9 |
|
|
Mac OS X CoreFoundation framework, but it's lighter in libpeak. The |
| 10 |
|
|
few assembly parts are taken from FreeBSD and Linux kernel source and |
| 11 |
|
|
from the PM2 software suite. They are only tuned a bit to fit in |
| 12 |
|
|
libpeak. I'm sorry if I forgot something here. I'm glad if libpeak |
| 13 |
|
|
might help for other projects too. |

Now some people who've put work into libpeak: |
| 16 |
|
|
|
| 17 |
|
|
Jean-Edouard Babin, author of the Perl script for the test suite. Also |
| 18 |
|
|
an excellent tester, especially on NetBSD and rare funky systems! |
| 19 |
|
|
|
| 20 |
|
|
Philippe Bourcier for his encouragements and ideas in several areas |
| 21 |
|
|
(possible applications for libpeak, benchmarking, etc). |
| 22 |
|
|
|
| 23 |
|
|
Pascal Gloor for his encouragements, advises and patches. |
| 24 |
|
|
|
| 25 |
|
|
Technical support is indispensable when developing a library like the |
| 26 |
|
|
PEAK Library. Thanks go to Jean-Edouard Babin (PPC970), Philippe |
| 27 |
|
|
Sainte-Marie (Linux x86 2.6.1), Kevin Roettger (Yellow Dog Linux PPC |
| 28 |
|
|
2.4, 2.6), Julien B. (Linux slackware, HP/UX), Nicolas Goy (Solaris |
| 29 |
|
|
2.9) and the University of Bordeaux I, France (AIX, older Solaris, |
| 30 |
|
|
Linux 2.4 SMP, Alpha, etc.) for providing the needed support. |
