  NGPT - Next Generation POSIX Threading

  Version 2.2.1 (20-Mar-2003)

  ABSTRACT

  NGPT is the user-level portion of a POSIX pthreads library which provides

  non-preemptive priority-based scheduling for multiple threads of

  execution (aka ``multithreading'') inside event-driven applications. All

  threads run in the same address space of the server application, but each

  thread has it's own individual program-counter, run-time stack, signal

  mask and errno variable.

  On SMP machines, this library will use an M:N threading model if enabled

  resulting in significantly improved performance.

  IMPORTANT NOTICE: 

  Release 1.1.0 is the first release of the "UNSTABLE" tree of the future NGPT 2.0.

  

  As an UNSTABLE RELEASE, this release is not suitable for use in a production 

  environment, however, it should be noted that we have done fairly extensive testing, 

  so problems are unlikely.  If you do encounter any problems with this release

  please post them to the NGPT website and the development team will address them.
