+ *  Processes (#msg_process_t) are independent agents that can do stuff on their own. They are in charge of executing your code interacting with the simulated world.
+ *  A process may be defined as a <em>code</em> with some <em>private data</em>.
+ *  Processes must be located on <em>hosts</em> (#msg_host_t), and they exchange data by sending tasks (#msg_task_t) that are similar to envelops containing data.
