A peek into the beam
When the scheduler(on one core) sees these concurrent tasks, it allocates some time and memory at runtime to child and lets it run for a bit, if the process does not finish(an infinite loop for example), the scheduler moves on to child_two and so on, checking up on each process, computing a bit. Processes are namespaced in a local registry for a single node. Scheduling across multiple nodes works the same way, only you'd need a different way to manage the global name space of running processes.

Syn v3
i'm curious if this has the same future set as https://github.com/uwiger/gproc
What are some alternatives?
When comparing gproc and syn you can also consider the following projects:
Rustler - Safe Rust bridge for creating Erlang NIF functions
minigen - Pure random data generation library, appropriate for realistic simulations in the Erlang ecosystem
ast_ninja - The Elixir AST explorer
oidcc - OpenId Connect client library in Erlang & Elixir
