Steveh,

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I am looking for an application model using asynchronous communication to achieve high throughput and fast responding time to continuous events so different components may continue to do their work without waiting for each other, but communicate asynchronously for collaborative works. Just like in real life, everyone is doing his/her work, but communicate via email, or phone if it is urgent or desperate. Holding someone up is generally not a good idea. As another example, if I have data flowing through a channel, I don't want to continuously lock/unlock the channel when adding or taking data into/out of the channel, at least not in the application level. So, I am not satisfied with having a thread waiting for another thread to finish its work because this approach inevitably has led us to confront with synchronisation issues, race conditions and debugging nightmare, etc, very ineffective in development. In my view, your approach is a leap in software development which is backed by advance in hardware development. The advantages of having an effective framework to deal with these common pitfalls are obvious as developers do not need to spending a lot of time inventing their own wheels (i.e. application mode). I look forward to your RC1, thanks again.
