SimTalk, a Smalltalk simulation package developed by people at Tektronix,
is supposed to use a lot of processes and semaphores.  It would make a
neat demonstration of a parallel system.  Although SimTalk is not (yet)
a product, universities can get a license for it for a reasonable fee.
However, it is a fairly big Smalltalk-80 program, and might be a bit
much for a first attempt.
