which is _NOT_ concurrent computing anymore, simple because its not using shared memory, and in fact there is no sharing at all, only a glimpse of it.
Huh? What does sharing have to do with concurrency? The one and only thing shared state has to do with concurrency is the desire to speed it up, i.e. a premature optimization. That's it.
Look. A current multi-core architecture uses shared memory. So the logical way how we can utilize such architecture at maximum power is to build on top of it. Any other (such as share nothing) introducing too much noise on such architectures.
