The terms future, promise, delay, and deferred are often used interchangeably, although some differences in usage between future and promise are treated below. Specifically, when usage is distinguished, a future is a read-only placeholder view of a variable, while a promise is a writable, single assignment container which sets the value of the ...
A function that accepts a callback parameter may be designed to call back before returning to its caller which is known as synchronous or blocking.

E—uses promises to preclude deadlocks; ECMAScript—uses promises for asynchronous operations; Eiffel—through its SCOOP mechanism based on the concepts of Design by Contract; Elixir—dynamic and functional meta-programming aware language running on the Erlang VM. Erlang—uses synchronous or asynchronous message passing with no shared memory
CommonJS's specification of how modules should work is widely used today for server-side JavaScript with Node.js. [1] It is also used for browser-side JavaScript, but that code must be packaged with a transpiler since browsers don't support CommonJS. [1]

CORS is now supported by all modern browsers (desktop and mobile). [18] The CORS protocol has several restrictions, with two models of support.
In event driven architectures, synchronous transactions can be achieved through using request-response paradigm and it can be implemented in two ways: [16] Creating two separate queues: one for requests and the other for replies. The event producer must wait until it receives the response. Creating one dedicated ephemeral queue for each request.
