Abstract
This paper surveys concurrency issues of programming languages. The evolution of these issues is analyzed in the context of the evolution of other language concepts, such as data and control abstraction. Specific concurrency concepts discussed in the paper include: granularity of parallelism, degree of parallelism, synchronization and communication, and physical distribution. The review of the problems of synchronization and communication includes semaphores, messages and mailboxes, and monitors. Concurrency aspects of ADA are also presented as a case study of a state-of-the-art programming language.
