[open-cobol-list] writing concurrent code : possible with gnucobol?

[Mayuresh Kathe]

hi,

do cobol in general and gnucobol specifically possess any capabilities
that can facilitate writing programs which can take advantage of
today's multi-core hardware systems?

suppose i wish to write a financial accounting system running atop a
gnu/linux based distribution like say ubuntu, would gnucobol run as a
single threaded process? or can i introduce concurrency? and is it easy
to achieve?

if yes, any pointers for reading material would be nice to have. :)

thanks,
