UVA ADEPT:Token Handling-- Notes Page -- |
ADEPT has many procedures and functions defined to handle the
user-defined data type token. Some of the procedures and
functions are presented here.
The first four procedures are used for dependent output
and data input. These procedures perform the handshaking
necessary for data tokens which require a fully interlocked
communication protocol between a master and a slave.
The last three procedures handle independent or control
tokens. Control tokens do no handshaking protocol
because the master may place and remove them independently of what the
slave does with the tokens.
