ASCRE also has an option to have an exit taken when the started address space terminates which can aid communication/sync between your main STC and the aux STCs.
Do you really need an ASID for each function? - Why not use a TCB within the same STC ?

Are there some advanced options or features to ASCRE that make it worth while to use? Any example? From reading, it seems that it may be easier to set up a cross memory environment between the starting and started address spaces using ASCRE. What I'm considering this for is an STC which listens on a TCPIP port, accept()s the connection (to a socket), then uses ASCRE or MGCRE to start up an STC to actually do the functions needed by the client. I know that it would likely be easier to do a fork(), at least in regards to passing the socket to the child, but I don't know that I actually want to use UNIX services.
