From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   Idealized CSP
  
      A programming language combining simply typed,
      {call-by-name} {procedures} with {asynchronous} communicating
      processes, assuming fair parallel execution.   Idealized CSP
      generalises {Anthony Hoare}'s original {CSP} and Kahn's
      networks of {deterministic} processes, and is closely related
      to {Parallel Algol} by Stephen Brookes of {CMU}.
  
      Procedures permit the encapsulation of common {protocols} and
      parallel programming idioms.   {Local variables} and local
      channel declarations provide a way to delimit the scope of
      interference between parallel agents, and allow a form of
      concurrent {object-oriented programming}.
  
      [Was this language also designed by Brookes?]
