A Linguagem de Programação CHILL
Abstract
This paper presents an over-all description of the CHILL programming language. It emphasizes the concepts, contructions and mechanisms provided by CHILL that make it presently one of the most refined high level programming languages. The paper presents a brief historical review that identifies the motivations that led to a new language definition and describes its ongoing evolution process. Recent ideas on software engineering are reflected in the presentation of subjects such as safe and independent piecewise program development, mechanisms for concurrent process execution, supervision of time-dependent events, exception handling etc.
