This directory contains the implementations for worker components.
They have the same component definition and share the same
stub/skeleton/servant lib implementations. That is, they appear to be
the same to their client but they behave differently.
Workers provide the Common_Ops interface which allows their client to
request them to "do some work." Two differnt kinds of worker
components are available here:
1. Compute_Bound worker (CB_Worker)
Upon receiving a request to perform some work, it will perform some
heavy computation and eat up a lot of CPU cycles before returning.
2. IO_Bound worker (IOB_Worker)
Upon receiving a request to perform some work, it will perform some
I/O operations before returning.
