Besides data integration, Cω extends the C# programming language with new asynchronous concurrency abstractions, based on the join calculus. The language presents a simple and powerful model of concurrency which is applicable both to multithreaded applications running on a single machine and to the orchestration of asynchronous, event-based applications communicating over a wide area network.

Note   Cω is an evolving language and as such, is subject to change. While the semantic concepts underlying Cω are stable, the syntax and other specifics of the Cω language could change in the future. Additionally, the current Cω compiler provides an incomplete implementation of details or behavior that might be described in this documentation.
