In my master thesis I'm studying concurrent objects, and arguing
that interaction between objects (components in BETA) should
be "loose", in the sense that a message from component A 
should be sent to component B, and that B is to concider
when and if this message (procedure-call) should be executed.
(As the model presentes in "Inheritance of Synchronization 
Constraints in Concurrent Object-Oriented Programming Languages"
by Svend Frĝlund (1992).
My question to readers of this newsgroup is as follows:
Have you any knowledge of sutch a sceme beeing (tried) implemented 
in BETA?
I'm grateful for all answers, as my deadline is rapidly getting
closer ;-)
