+EventMachine (EM) adds two different formalisms for lightweight concurrency
+to the Ruby programmer's toolbox: spawned processes and deferrables. This
+note will show you how to use spawned processes. For more information, see
+the separate document LIGHTWEIGHT_CONCURRENCY.
+
+
+=== What are Spawned Processes?
+
+Spawned Processes in EventMachine are inspired directly by the "processes"
+found in the Erlang programming language. EM deliberately borrows much (but
+not all) of Erlang's terminology. However, EM's spawned processes differ from
+Erlang's in ways that reflect not only Ruby style, but also the fact that
+Ruby is not a functional language like Erlang.
+
+Let's proceed with a complete, working code sample that we will analyze line
+by line. Here's an EM implementation of the "ping-pong" program that also
+appears in the Erlang tutorial:
+
+
+ require 'eventmachine'
+
+ EM.run {
+   pong = EM.spawn {|x, ping|
+     puts "Pong received #{x}"
+     ping.notify( x-1 )
+   }
+
+   ping = EM.spawn {|x|
+     if x > 0
+       puts "Pinging #{x}"
+       pong.notify x, self
+     else
+       EM.stop
+     end
+   }
+
+   ping.notify 3
+ }
+
+If you run this program, you'll see the following output:
+
+ Pinging 3
+ Pong received 3
+ Pinging 2
+ Pong received 2
+ Pinging 1
+ Pong received 1
+
+Let's take it step by step.
+
+EventMachine#spawn works very much like the built-in function spawn in
+Erlang. It returns a reference to a Ruby object of class
+EventMachine::SpawnedProcess, which is actually a schedulable entity. In
+Erlang, the value returned from spawn is called a "process identifier" or
+"pid." But we'll refer to the Ruby object returned from EM#spawn simply as a
+"spawned process."
+
+You pass a Ruby block with zero or more parameters to EventMachine#spawn.
+Like all Ruby blocks, this one is a closure, so it can refer to variables
+defined in the local context when you call EM#spawn.
+
+However, the code block passed to EM#spawn does NOT execute immediately by
+default. Rather, it will execute only when the Spawned Object is "notified."
+In Erlang, this process is called "message passing," and is done with the
+operator !, but in Ruby it's done simply by calling the #notify method of a
+spawned-process object. The parameters you pass to #notify must match those
+defined in the block that was originally passed to EM#spawn.
+
+When you call the #notify method of a spawned-process object, EM's reactor
+core will execute the code block originally passed to EM#spawn, at some point
+in the future. (#notify itself merely adds a notification to the object's
+message queue and ALWAYS returns immediately.)
+
+When a SpawnedProcess object executes a notification, it does so in the
+context of the SpawnedProcess object itself. The notified code block can see
+local context from the point at which EM#spawn was called. However, the value
+of "self" inside the notified code block is a reference to the SpawnedProcesss
+object itself.
+
+An EM spawned process is nothing more than a Ruby object with a message
+queue attached to it. You can have any number of spawned processes in your
+program without compromising scalability. You can notify a spawned process
+any number of times, and each notification will cause a "message" to be
+placed in the queue of the spawned process. Spawned processes with non-empty
+message queues are scheduled for execution automatically by the EM reactor.
+Spawned processes with no visible references are garbage-collected like any
+other Ruby object.
+
+Back to our code sample:
+
+   pong = EM.spawn {|x, ping|
+     puts "Pong received #{x}"
+     ping.notify( x-1 )
+   }
+
+This simply creates a spawned process and assigns it to the local variable
+pong. You can see that the spawned code block takes a numeric parameter and a
+reference to another spawned process. When pong is notified, it expects to
+receive arguments corresponding to these two parameters. It simply prints out
+the number it receives as the first argument. Then it notifies the spawned
+process referenced by the second argument, passing it the first argument
+minus 1.
+
+And then the block ends, which is crucial because otherwise nothing else
+can run. (Remember that in LC, scheduled entities run to completion and are
+never preempted.)
+
+On to the next bit of the code sample:
+
+   ping = EM.spawn {|x|
+     if x > 0
+       puts "Pinging #{x}"
+       pong.notify x, self
+     else
+       EM.stop
+     end
+   }
+
+Here, we're spawning a process that takes a single (numeric) parameter. If
+the parameter is greater than zero, the block writes it to the console. It
+then notifies the spawned process referenced by the pong local variable,
+passing as arguments its number argument, and a reference to itself. The
+latter reference, as you saw above, is used by pong to send a return
+notification.
+
+If the ping process receives a zero value, it will stop the reactor loop and
+end the program.
+
+Now we've created a pair of spawned processes, but nothing else has happened.
+If we stop now, the program will spin in the EM reactor loop, doing nothing
+at all. Our spawned processes will never be scheduled for execution.
+
+But look at the next line in the code sample:
+
+   ping.notify 3
+
+This line gets the ping-pong ball rolling. We call ping's #notify method,
+passing the argument 3. This causes a message to be sent to the ping spawned
+process. The message contains the single argument, and it causes the EM
+reactor to schedule the ping process. And this in turn results in the
+execution of the Ruby code block passed to EM#spawn when ping was created.
+Everything else proceeds as a result of the messages that are subsequently
+passed to each other by the spawned processes.
+
+[TODO, present the outbound network i/o use case, and clarify that spawned
+processes are interleaved with normal i/o operations and don't interfere
+with them at all. Also, blame Erlang for the confusing term "process"]
