  • Abstract
    Network programs face several delay sources when sending or retrieving data. This is particularly problematic in programs which interact directly with the user, most notably Web browsers. We present a hybrid approach using threads and signal driven I/O, which allows a non-blocking main thread and overlapping waiting times
