Wait() and Watching()

• Wait()

  • synchronize to the next clock edge
  • implemented on threads using a mutex var

• Watching()

  • can be implemented using wait() but would be expensive
  • represents asynchronous signals and events
  • in synchronous model, these are evaluated by the clock process
  • encapsulated in a lambda object that contains a pointer to the waiting process
