  abstract=      "Although concurrency is generally perceived to be a hard
     subject, it can in fact be very simple, provided that the
     underlying model is simple. The occam-pi parallel processing
     language provides such a simple yet powerful concurrency
     model that is based on CSP and the pi-calculus. This paper
     presents pony, the occam-pi Network Environment. occam-pi
     and pony provide a new, unified, concurrency model that
     bridges inter- and intra-processor concurrency. This enables
     the development of distributed applications in a
     transparent, dynamic and highly scalable way. The first part
     of this paper discusses the philosophy behind pony, explains
     how it is used, and gives a brief overview of its
     implementation. The second part evaluates pony's performance
     by presenting a number of benchmarks."
