Hi Nets:

I am new to the object-oriented concept. So, I hope I would not insult
any one in this group by asking the following question.

What does it mean by "Several threads can simultaneously enter an object
and execute concurrently." Does it mean REAL CONCURRENCY? How about the
concurrency control, then? Or an object should have a machanism like a
monitor. Any comment/hint/reference is welcomed. Thanks in advance.
