1983 Invited address solved problems, unsolved problems and non-problems in concurrency

Abstract

This is an edited transcript of a talk given at last year's conference. To preserve the flavor of the talk and the questions, I have done very little editing—mostly eliminating superfluous words and phrases, correcting especially atrocious grammar, and making the obvious changes needed when replacing slides by figures. The tape recorder was not functioning for the first few minutes, so I had to recreate the beginning of the talk.
