Using actors for modular concurrency in OSGi
The Actor model is an architectural pattern designed to support high-scale concurrency without the need for locking constructs and with simple memory safety rules. This talk discusses how to add support for the Actor concurrency model to the OSGi environment. We want to retain the composition of OSGi services as the basic model for creating applications while at the same time allowing application developers to schedule concurrent execution with an actor runtime, rather than to use threads and locks.
