Style #29 ============================== Similar to the letterbox style, but where the 'things' have independent threads of execution. Constraints: - The larger problem is decomposed into 'things' that make sense for the problem domain - Each 'thing' has a queue meant for other \textit{things} to place messages in it - Each 'thing' is a capsule of data that exposes only its ability to receive messages via the queue - Each 'thing' has its own thread of execution independent of the others. Possible names: - Free agents - Active letterbox - Actors
