Dramatis is the public outing of your approach to Actors for concurrency but I bet you have used plenty of other approaches.</p> <p>What other approaches have you used? I imagine several don&#8217;t even require message-passing semantics.<br /> Have you tried transactional memory? Futures? Plain old mutexes &amp; semaphores?</p> <p>You clearly have a lot of experience here; how about a post comparing/contrasting the different mechanisms you have used before and the outcome.</p> <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/smparkes_net_commments/~4/QLlLAIsnR1o" height="1" width="1"/> http://smparkes.net/2008/04/28/the-year-of-message-passing/comment-page-1/#comment-13
