Good day!

I am interested in references to articles or on-going work (or whatever)
which touch upon the implementation of a buffered asynchronous communication
layer with use of synchronous primitives.

In particular, I am interested in the implementation of such an asynchronous
layer on a transputer network. I don't want to use the CSN primitives of 
CSTools, which provides asynchronous communication primitives, because the
communication setup time is much to large for the small messages I have to 
send.

Summary: I like to receive any response or critique considering the 
	 asynchronous communication layer.


Thanks in advance,

  Benno
