HTML5 Samples

Within this example, the browser would develop a pool of workers and delivering the command to every workerand begin the task. not so difficult, you may still find many complication coming, stay tune.

var workers = new Array(5);
// creating a pool of workers
for(var i=0; i<5; ++i) {
  workers[i] = new Worker('worker001.js');
  // getting the message from the worker
  workers[i].onmessage = function(event) {
  }
}
for(var i=0; i<5; ++i) {
  // sending the message to the worker
  workers[i].postMessage(i);
}

and here is code of the worker001.js

var ID = null;

onmessage = function(event) {
  ID = event.data;
  postMessage('worker: ID ('+ID+') assigned and start to run');
}

nevertheless, when you look into the implementation of the chrome, you will find it is a separate process!
