Question for software engineering pros

[Speelgoedmannetje]

In the spirit of Amiga, I like the idea of OOP applied in hardware. But certainly not the CISC way.
But I know someone who already thought this way at least 20 years ago.

@Karlos,
with locks, you mean MUTEXes, I guess?

@bloodline
Karlos was talking about an algorithm to deal with data, so two or more seperately running programs within a program (called threads) cannot acces the same data at the same time. If I know it correctly, if a thread wants to acces the data at the same time as another thread, it is placed in a queue. (plus some more features like that)
very nice indeed to prevent lockups :-)
