Compared to Recursive tasks, BinaryAsyncActions may * have smaller stack space footprints and faster completion mechanics * but higher per-task footprints. Compared to LinkedAsyncActions, * BinaryAsyncActions are simpler to use and have less overhead in * typical usages but are restricted to binary computation trees. * *

Upon construction, a BinaryAsyncAction does not bear any * linkages. For non-root tasks, links must be established using * method {@link #linkSubtasks} before use. * *

Sample Usage. A version of Fibonacci: *

 * class Fib extends BinaryAsyncAction {
 *   final int n;
 *   int result;
 *   Fib(int n) { this.n = n; }
 *   protected void compute() {
 *     if (n > 1) {
 *       linkAndForkSubtasks(new Fib(n-1), new Fib(n-2));
 *     else {
 *       result = n; // fib(0)==0; fib(1)==1
 *       complete();
 *     }
 *   }
 *   protected void onComplete(BinaryAsyncAction x, BinaryAsyncAction y) {
 *     result = ((Fib)x).result + ((Fib)y).result;
 *   }
 * }
 * 
* An alternative, and usually faster, strategy is to instead use a * loop to fork subtasks: *
 *   protected void compute() {
 *     Fib f = this;
 *     while (f.n > 1) {
 *       Fib left = new Fib(f.n - 1);
 *       Fib right = new Fib(f.n - 2);
 *       f.linkSubtasks(left, right);
 *       right.fork(); // fork right
 *       f = left;     // loop on left
 *     }
 *     f.result = f.n;
 *     f.complete();
 *   }
 * }
 *
