Dietmar Planitzer is leading a project to write "Apollo" - an experimental operating system for Amiga 3000/4000 (hardware with 68030 processor - Atari TT and Falcon are also planned). This system is supposed to be multitasking, but instead of threads it uses "virtual processors" and queues. Virtual processors can be moved between applications by Apollo as needed. Applications use dispatch queues to tell Apollo what they want to execute in parallel.
