+/**
+ * @file parc_FutureTask.h
+ * @ingroup threading
+ * @brief An encapsulated, asynchronous computation.
+ *
+ * This type associates a function and a pointer to data and provides the functionality
+ * to invoke the function supplying the given pointer to data and returning the result.
+ *
+ * The operations of invoking the function and collecting its return value may be asynchronous from each other
+ * in that an attempting to fetch the return value before the function has been invoked
+ * will cause the calling thread to block until the function has been invoked and run to completion.
+ * This enables the use of PARCFutureTask in a work queue, or thread pool where tasks are run asynchronously
+ * from each other and from an originating thread.
+ *
+ * Each instance of the type may be cancelled,
+ * inhibiting a future invocation of the associated function.
+ *
+ * Typical use is a one time invocation of the associated function, induced by the `parcFutureTask_Get`,
+ * but invoking `parcFutureTask_GetAndReset` invokes the associated function and resets the task to the initial state,
+ * permitting a future call to `parcFutureTask_Get` or `parcFutureTask_GetAndReset` the run the associated function again.
