We present Cho-Reo-graphies (CR), a new language model that unites two
powerful programming paradigms for concurrent software based on communicating
processes: Choreographic Programming and Exogenous Coordination. In CR,
programmers specify the desired communications among processes using a
choreography, and define how communications should be concretely animated by
connectors given as constraint automata (e.g., synchronous barriers and
asynchronous multi-casts). CR is the first choreography calculus where
different communication semantics (determined by connectors) can be freely
mixed; since connectors are user-defined, CR also supports many communication
semantics that were previously unavailable for choreographies. We develop a
static analysis that guarantees that a choreography in CR and its user-defined
connectors are compatible, define a compiler from choreographies to a process
calculus based on connectors, and prove that compatibility guarantees
deadlock-freedom of the compiled process implementations
