An async event is the one that is called from an interrupts handler. This 
type of event can interrupt the code that runs in a task.

After all the async code is done executing the tasks are executed. Task 
run to completion so they don't interrupt each other. A task can signal 
normal (also called sync) events. :-)

A very good explanation of all these is in Chapter 4 from Phil Levis's 
book:

All the best!
