Change 8052 by rwatson@rwatson_tislabs on 2002/03/20 07:26:18

	Rewrite the abstract to make use of stronger language, and to
	more effectively lay out the strategy of the document.

-      <para>This document attempts to present the design of SMPng thus
-	far.  It will most likely be a loose collection of ideas for
-	the time being.  I am by no means authoritative, this is just
-	my view of where SMPng is going and needs to go.  It also

-	related to SMPng.</para>
+      <para>This document presents the current design and implementation of
+	the SMPng Architecture.  First, the basic primitives and tools are
+	introduced.  Next, a general architecture for the FreeBSD kernel's
+	synchronization and execution model is laid out.  Then, locking
+	strategies for specific subsystems are discussed, documenting the
+	approaches taken to introduce fine-grained synchronization and
+	parallelism for each subsystem.  Finally, detailed implementation
+	notes are provided to motivate design choices, and make the reader
+	aware of important implications involving the use of specific
+	primitives. </para>
