This book aims to show how programming will be changed by the concepts of parallel systems and how these concepts relate to the ideas of functions and objects. To demonstrate the kind of programming that can be done on these systems, the research language Balinda K is used. The book will also enhance the reader's grasp of the concepts of concurrency and modular programming, reviewing these from the perspectives of application programming in a parallel language. The book should interest graduate and senior undergraduate students of computer science and computer engineering, and IT professionals working in a multiprocesing or distributed computing environment.
