Java theory and practice: Synchronization optimizations in Mustang edit / delete
Optimising locking in the JVM.
ongoing ยท On Threads edit / delete
Some notes on where Sun are going with parallel hardware. I'd disagree with his assertion that dynamic languages are primitive for parallelism -- heck, Python has CSP-like stuff available...
Design Philosophy of Distributed Programming in Mozart | Lambda the Ultimate edit / delete
Thesis about a parallel language with a distributed runtime -- just what we want for a future occam.
Parallel arrays and collective communication edit / delete
A parallel Life in Java -- the boring one-comm-per-cycle version.
A Parallel Implementation of the 2D Automaton "Life" in Java edit / delete
Uses a barrier (but no resigning). Interesting thing, though: the barrier implementation tells you how many processes are left when you sync, so it's easy to do "extended barrier" stuff with it.
Concurrent Programming edit / delete
Basic parallel programming in Erlang. Their syntax looks somewhat occam-inspired.

Pict: A Programming Language Based on the Pi-Calculus - Pierce, Turner (ResearchIndex) edit / delete
As it says. They come up with something that looks a lot like Haskell, with channel communications used for returning values from functions -- very different from occam! They claim pi-calculus precludes process priorities.

Another parallel language: this one has a C equivalent of FORKING with value collection.
