What is the difference between event driven model and reactor pattern? [closed]

Answer 1

I think that this separation "non-blocking" and "asynchronous" is wrong, as the main implication of "asynchronous" is "non-blocking". Reactor pattern is about asynchronous (so non-blocking) calls, but synchronous (blocking) processing of those calls. Proactor is about asynchronous (non-blocking) calls and asynchronous (non-blocking) processing of those calls.
