hailing from the "JACOB for Dummies" camp...
Not sure why I didn't stumble on it before (cross referenced documents
in this concurrent process domain is so vast I guess its easy to miss
the gems) but this more concise paper by Agha is MUCH better
http://formal.cs.uiuc.edu/papers/ATactors_festschrift.pdf
than what I had been looking at.

FWIW - if you stumble on Agha or are totally lost (like me) I frankly
found these and other Wikipedia topics quite clear (certainly a lot
easier than reading the academic papers).
