ABSTRACT:
A system and method for emulating complete operating system support for synchronization of the execution of a process on multiple independent events. The emulation includes creating a thread and control; collecting representations of the different events into one container event, the occurrence of any one of the different events effecting the occurrence of the container event; waiting on the container event; suspending the execution of the thread; and after the occurrence of the container event, resuming the execution of the thread of control.
