The first pattern, RTJ-leader-follower; is a RTSJ-compliant version of the well-known leader/follower pattern. The second pattern, called scoped tunnels, provides a new communication mechanism for RTSJ threads executing in different and incompatible memory areas, thus making possible the realization of the standard pattern half-sync/half-async for efficient network I/O handling.
