N. H. Gehani and W. D. Roome wrote a paper for the journal 
"Software: Practice and Experience" in 1984 describing their superset of
the C programming language - Concurrent C.

The authors implemented a version of this language on a UNIX system. For
my purposes (work on an undergraduate electrical engineering thesis) I 
will require access to software executable in an MS-DOS or OS/2 environment
and would ideally like to work with a Concurrent C compiler. Has anyone
implemented Concurrent C in either of these environments yet? 

More generally, what is the current state of the language's development? 

And, though he probably has better things to do, is there anyone
who knows Narain Gehani's network address. An AT&T address, somewhere in
New Jersey, if the preface of his recently published book  - 
"Concurrent Programming" - is accurate.
