  abstract= "As part of the CoSMoS project, we have implemented a variety
     of complex systems simulations using occam-pi. occam-pi is
     unusual in that it provides built-in support for
     synchronisation against a real-time clock, but simulations
     generally need to run faster or slower than real time. We
     describe the idea of a ''clock'' -- a new synchronisation
     primitive for process-oriented programming, similar to a
     barrier but extended with a sense of time. Clocks can be
     used to provide simulated time in a complex systems
     simulation, and can also be used to implement efficient
     phase synchronisation for controlling access to shared
     resources."
