Progress: controller program.

Progress: controller program.

I completely overlooked that the thread time related functions are relative to the absolute system clock.
The timed locks were all acting crazy because I used relative values!

The process status is not being initialized, resulting in invalid and error prone checks.

Begin fixing problems with the asynchronous processing.
Between incorrect uses of times and some stuctural problems, the asynchronous behavior was not operating in the order of the dependencies.
The current work fixes that, but there is still more work to do.
I expect this code to not work just yet.

There also seems to be a locking issue somewhere in here that prevents the program from fully exiting.
Check the thread conditions as those have had problems in the past.
