I did not read all of that paper, but it seems to rely on the (un)masking of signals in threads, as well as the sending of signals to 'kill' a thread.

They are not OS signals: it's entirely the matter of the language's runtime system.

(But Unix signals can be nicely exposed as these signals for the programmer.)
