Open Event Machine (OpenEM or EM) is an architectural abstraction and framework of an event driven
multicore optimized processing concept originally developed for networking.
It offers an easy programming concept for scalable and dynamically load balanced
multicore data plane applications with a very low overhead run-to-completion principle.

EM can run on bare metal for best performance or under an operating system with special
arrangements.

This release of the Open Event Machine contains the EM API as well as an example implementation for Intel multicore CPUs.

!!! NOTE !!! Release version numbering scheme changed: after v1.5 follows v1.1.0, where 1.1 reflects the used OpenEM API version.
