   9                 This library offers an alternative parallel programming
  10                 API to that provided by the @parallel@ package.
  11                 The 'Par' monad allows the simple description of
  12                 parallel computations, and can be used to add
  13                 parallelism to pure Haskell code.  The basic API
  14                 is straightforward: the monad supports forking
  15                 and simple communication in terms of 'IVar's.
  16                 The library comes with an efficient work-stealing
  17                 implementation, but the internals are also
  18                 exposed so that you can build your own scheduler
  19                 if necessary.
  20                 Examples of use can be found in the examples/ directory
  21                 of the source package.
