+# In concurrent programming, a monitor is an object or module intended to be
+# used safely by more than one thread. The defining characteristic of a
+# monitor is that its methods are executed with mutual exclusion. That is, at
+# each point in time, at most one thread may be executing any of its methods.
+# This mutual exclusion greatly simplifies reasoning about the implementation
+# of monitors compared to reasoning about parallel code that updates a data
+# structure.
+#
+# You can read more about the general principles on the Wikipedia page for
+# Monitors[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_%28synchronization%29]
+#
+# == Examples
+#
+# === Simple object.extend
+#
+# require 'monitor.rb'
+#
+# buf = []
+# buf.extend(MonitorMixin)
+# empty_cond = buf.new_cond
+#
+# # consumer
+# Thread.start do
+# loop do
+# buf.synchronize do
+# empty_cond.wait_while { buf.empty? }
+# print buf.shift
+# end
+# end
+# end
+#
+# # producer
+# while line = ARGF.gets
+# buf.synchronize do
+# buf.push(line)
+# empty_cond.signal
+# end
+# end
+#
+# The consumer thread waits for the producer thread to push a line to buf
+# while <tt>buf.empty?</tt>. The producer thread (main thread) reads a
+# line from ARGF and pushes it into buf then calls <tt>empty_cond.signal</tt>
+# to notify the consumer thread of new data.
+#
+# === Simple Class include
+#
+# require 'monitor'
+#
+# class SynchronizedArray < Array
+#
+# include MonitorMixin
+#
+# def initialize(*args)
+# super(*args)
+# end
+#
+# alias :old_shift :shift
+# alias :old_unshift :unshift
+#
+# def shift(n=1)
+# self.synchronize do
+# self.old_shift(n)
+# end
+# end
+#
+# def unshift(item)
+# self.synchronize do
+# self.old_unshift(item)
+# end
+# end
+#
+# # other methods ...
+# end
+#
+# +SynchronizedArray+ implements an Array with synchronized access to items.
+# This Class is implemented as subclass of Array which includes the
+# MonitorMixin module.

+# Documentation comments:
+# - All documentation comes from Nutshell.
+# - MonitorMixin.new_cond appears in the example, but is not documented in
+# Nutshell.
+# - All the internals (internal modules Accessible and Initializable, class
+# ConditionVariable) appear in RDoc. It might be good to hide them, by
+# making them private, or marking them :nodoc:, etc.
+# - RDoc doesn't recognise aliases, so we have mon_synchronize documented, but
+# not synchronize.
+# - mon_owner is in Nutshell, but appears as an accessor in a separate module
+# here, so is hard/impossible to RDoc. Some other useful accessors
+# (mon_count and some queue stuff) are also in this module, and don't appear
+# directly in the RDoc output.
+# - in short, it may be worth changing the code layout in this file to make the
+# documentation easier
