->OK, so this begs the question: what is the "smallest" assignment that can
->use concurrency fruitfully. I would like to teach a bit about tasking in
->one of my classes, but I don't want students to get "wrong" ideas from the
->example I use. Anyone out there have such an assignment? Is there some prime
->example out there of a good use of multi-tasking that is amenable to
->classroom instruction?

->Rich Pattis
A good example of a small multi-tasking problem is the Producer-Consumer
problem with an intermediate buffer. It is covered well in the book by
Gehani entitled Ada An Advanced Introduction, 1984, Prentice-Hall, pages
158-161.
