As processors become faster and multiprocessor systems become cheaper, the need to take advantage of multithreading in order to achieve full hardware resource utilization only increases the importance of being able to incorporate concurrency in a wide variety of application categories.
In this article we are evaluting a new approach to the concurrency. In the last five years computers are becoming even more parallel. Intel is pushing multi-core achiteture also on commodity personal computers. Neverless the computing power is ofter not well used: one again, hardware is a step head of our day-by-day software development. Remember when the 80286 came into light. The 286 was able to provide a multi-programming architecture but without memory management protection. We had to wait 386 hardware to see software working on preemptive multi-tasking, because software cannot cope with unprotected memory. In one word, it costs too much to develop a operating system without the new features the 80386 bring to us. What about concurrent programming? Can we look similarities in the聽 concurrency field?

[2019-UPDATE] Erlang 22 is OUT, so I wanna to come to the party!
On April 2015, Erlang father's聽Joe Armstrong give us a very interesting lesson I want to tell about.
There was a long thread titled "Erlang and Akka, The Sequel" on the erlang mailing list, reasoning about the need of some standard pattern on Promises and Future. A lot of JavaScript libraries deal about that (also jQuery has its implementation). I want to report the Joe Amstrong reply because it give us a very clear understanding on the reason Erlang is different and you should at least try it once.
