...Unlike many other languages with similar capabilities, async and await are not keywords in Kotlin and are not even part of its standard library. Moreover, Kotlin's concept of suspending function provides a safer and less error-prone abstraction for asynchronous operations than futures and promises. kotlinx.coroutines is a rich library for coroutines developed by JetBrains. It contains a number of high-level coroutine-enabled primitives that this guide covers, including launch, async and others. Coroutines can be thought of as light-weight threads, but there is a number of important differences that make their real-life usage very different from threads.

Deepend is a storage pool with subpool capabilities for Ada 2022, Ada 2012, Ada 2005, and Ada 95. Memory allocations can be associated with subpools and subpools can be deallocated as a whole which provides a safer alternative than managing deletions of individual objects. It also is likely to be more deterministic and efficient than garbage collection.

A suite of Ada 2012 generics to facilitate iterative and recursive parallelism for multicore systems and provide safer recursion for single and multicore systems. Generics include Ravenscar compatible versions for real-time systems. Also Includes paraffinalia, which is a set of useful generics for parallel quicksort, fast fourier transform, function integration, prefix sum, and Red-Black trees

KVOController is a now-archived Objective-C library from Facebook that simplifies Key-Value Observing (KVO) in Cocoa applications. It provides a safer, more concise API for observing properties and avoids common memory management pitfalls associated with KVO in Objective-C.
