[Haskell-cafe] Looking for documentation on Control.Parallel.Strategies

[Pepe Iborra]

There is also an excellent paper in tutorial style which imho is very  
useful to understand the interaction of lazyness with the  
Control.Parallel.Strategies combinators:

"Algorithm + Strategy = Parallelism"
Philip W. Trinder, Kevin Hammond, Hans-Wolfgang Loidl, and Simon L.  
Peyton Jones. Journal of Functional Programming, 8(1), Jan 1998.
