Hmm. This is becoming something of a puzzle. A simple noncode version of the model I am using is this
(loop (increase year with 1) (break and create bidirectional links between refs) ) The break and create step represents a contact network between humans, where each human is basically a struct-map which holds a list of other humans s/he is currently connected to. These connections need to be atomically broken and created, hence the refs. More details in the chlam-clean.clj file, and the accompanying forum post. To get this thing concurrent (i.e, using the multiple cpu's in my machine) Timothy suggested ( http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/13372bfe6bdd6497/0141cad632130799 ) to use the future function. I'll be working on that coming monday, but I was gathering some more information on how to use that future function in the mean time. (loop (increase year with 1) (concurrent: (break and create bidirectional links between refs)) (wait for year to finish) ) I'll try your suggestion and see if it is workable. Thanks!
