%X Writing concurrent programs in languages that lack explicit
   support for concurrency can often be awkward and difficult.
   Haskell\[rs]s monads provide a way to explicitly specify
   sequence and effects in a functional language, and monadic
   combinators allow composition of monadic actions, for
   example via parallelism and choice — two
   core aspects of Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP).We
   show how the use of these combinators, and being able to
   express processes as first\-class types (monadic actions)
   allow for easy and elegant programming of process\-oriented
   concurrency in a new CSP library for Haskell: Communicating
   Haskell Processes.
