                             ABSTRACT

  We have designed a portable interface between shared-memory multiprocessors
  and Standard ML of New Jersey. The interface is based on the conventional
  kernel thread model and provides facilities that can be used to implement 
  user-level thread packages.  The interface supports experimentation with 
  different thread scheduling policies and synchronization constructs.  It 
  has been ported to three different multiprocessors and used to construct
  a general purpose, user-level thread package.  In this paper, we discuss 
  the interface and its implementation and performance, with emphasis on the 
  Silicon Graphics 4D/380S multiprocessor. 


   DIRECTIONS FOR ANONYMOUS FTP:
   1) Ftp to reports.adm.cs.cmu.edu (128.2.218.42) as "anonymous".

   2) At the password prompt, send your Username@site 
      (you must include the "@" or the login will fail)
  
   3) Then "cd 1992"  (the directory for 1992 technical reports)

   4) set file type to binary: "binary"

   5) get CMU-CS-92-155.ps

   6) When you have finished getting the file, simply "quit."
