 * For initiating requests in synchronous manner. The possible requests are
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link Read} for computing a single result synchronously
 * <li>{@link AsyncRead} for computing a single result asynchronously
 * <li>{@link MultiRead} for computing a collection of results synchronously
 * <li>{@link AsyncMultiRead} for computing a collection of results
 * asynchronously
 * <li>{@link Write} for reading and writing synchronously
 * <li>{@link WriteOnly} for writing synchronously
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * The standard RequestProcessors are
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link ReadGraph} for performing requests during other requests
 * <li>{@link Session} for initiating a transactions for performing requests
 * <li>{@link MergingGraphRequestProcessor} for merging several requests in a
 * single transaction
 * </ul>
 * 
 * Database services (see e.g. {@link Session}) are available from implemented
 * {@link ServiceLocator}. For an asynchronous counterpart with the same
 * functionality as RequestProcessor see {@link AsyncRequestProcessor}
 * 
 * <p>
 * <b>IMPORTANT:</b>A client invoking any of the <code>syncRequest</code>
 * -methods in this interface must not assume that the request is performed
 * within the same thread that performed the <code>syncRequest</code>
 * invocation. This is an implementation-specific matter.
