The "User's Guide" in the installation package
of MC# Programming System contains the scripts and samples of running of MC# programs
as jobs through the different batch systems - PBS/Torque, Task Running Management System (TRMS),
Cleo.
2. The installation package for both (Windows
and Linux) versions contains a tutorial "Introduction to programming in MC#
language". In this tutorial the novel features of MC# language as async- and
movable methods, channels, handlers and chords are explained in detail. The
tutorial contains a series of samples which demonstrate the specific constructs of MC# language in action.
These samples
include
- computation of Fibonacci
numbers,
- all2all
program,
- Conway's "Game Of

- LINQ based image
rendering,
- N-Queens problem.

RandomAccess in MC# and corresponding comparisons with PFX (Parallel Extensions for .NET) and C/C++ versions
can be found at "Examples"
page.
4. Section "Publication" contains
an abstarct of the paper "A formal basis for the MC# programming language". In
