- **Daemonize actors:**
Some actors may be intended to simulate daemons that run in background. This example show how to transform a regular
actor into a daemon that will be automatically killed once the simulation is over.

- **Waiting for all communications in a set:**
The ``wait_all()`` function is useful when you want to block until
all activities in a given set have completed.

You can start asynchronous executions, just like you would fire
background threads.
