|

* The intent of this pattern is to separate the the synchronous and asynchronous processing

* and one for async. This simplifies the programming without unduly affecting the performance.

|

* <i>APPLICABILITY</i> <br/>
|
||||
* <ul>
|
||||
* <li>UNIX network subsystems - In operating systems network operations are carried out
|
||||
* asynchronously with help of hardware level interrupts.</li>
|
||||
* <li>CORBA - At the asynchronous layer one thread is associated with each socket that is
|
||||
* connected to the client. Thread blocks waiting for CORBA requests from the client. On receiving
|
||||
* request it is inserted in the queuing layer which is then picked up by synchronous layer which
|
||||
* processes the request and sends response back to the client.</li>
|
||||
* <li>Android AsyncTask framework - Framework provides a way to execute long running blocking calls,
|
||||
* such as downloading a file, in background threads so that the UI thread remains free to respond
|
||||
* to user inputs.</i>

|
||||
* <i>IMPLEMENTATION</i>
|
||||
* <br/>
|
||||
* The main method creates an asynchronous service which does not block the main thread while
|
||||
* the task is being performed. The main thread continues its work which is similar to Async Method
|
||||
* Invocation pattern. The difference between them is that there is a queuing layer between Asynchronous
|
||||
* layer and synchronous layer, which allows for different communication patterns between both layers.
|
||||
* Such as Priority Queue can be used as queuing layer to prioritize the way tasks are executed.
|
||||
* Our implementation is just one simple way of implementing this pattern, there are many variants possible
|
||||
* as described in its applications.
