I still don't *get* it.

Can you lay out a scenario/use case/example of what you have in mind?
- describe to moving parts
- what interactions they have to make the case work
- what capabilities each has/expects of others
- if parts of the coordination depend on special behavior of
   *people* rather than automata, explain that too.

Nothing complicated - just very high level.

	Thanks,
