+## Create a parallel pipeline
+
+[![crossbeam-badge]][crossbeam] [![cat-concurrency-badge]][cat-concurrency]
+
+This example uses the [crossbeam] and [crossbeam-channel] crates to create
+a parallel pipline, similar to that described in the ZeroMQ [guide]
+There is a data source and a data sink, with data being processed by two worker
+threads in parallel on its way from the source to the sink.
+
+We use bounded channels with a capacity of one using
+[`crossbeam_channel::bounded`]. The producer must be on its own thread because
+it produces messages faster than the workers can process them (since they sleep
+for half a second) - this means the producer blocks on the call to
+`[crossbeam_channel::Sender::send`] for half a second until one of the workers
+processes the data in the channel. Also note that the data in the channel is
+consumed by whichever worker calls receive first, so each message is delivered
+to a single worker rather than both workers.
+
+Reading from the channels via the iterator
+[`crossbeam_channel::Receiver::iter`] method will block, either waiting
+for new messages or until the channel is closed. Because the channels were
+created within the [`crossbeam::scope`], we must manually close them via `drop`
+to prevent the entire program from blocking on the worker for-loops. You can
+think of the calls to `drop` as signaling that no more messages will be sent.
+
+
+```rust
+extern crate crossbeam;
+extern crate crossbeam_channel;
+
+use std::thread;
+use std::time::Duration;
+use crossbeam_channel::bounded;
+
+fn main() {
+    let (snd1, rcv1) = bounded(1);
+    let (snd2, rcv2) = bounded(1);
+    let n_msgs = 4;
+    let n_workers = 2;
+
+    crossbeam::scope(|s| {
+        // Producer thread
+        s.spawn(|_| {
+            for i in 0..n_msgs {
+                snd1.send(i).unwrap();
+                println!("Source sent {}", i);
+            }
+            // Close the channel - this is necessary to exit
+            // the for-loop in the worker
+            drop(snd1);
+        });
+
+        // Parallel processing by 2 threads
+        for _ in 0..n_workers {
+            // Send to sink, receive from source
+            let (sendr, recvr) = (snd2.clone(), rcv1.clone());
+            // Spawn workers in separate threads
+            s.spawn(move |_| {
+            thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(500));
+                // Receive until channel closes
+                for msg in recvr.iter() {
+                    println!("Worker {:?} received {}.",
+                             thread::current().id(), msg);
+                    sendr.send(msg * 2).unwrap();
+                }
+            });
+        }
+        // Close the channel, otherwise sink will never
+        // exit the for-loop
+        drop(snd2);
+
+        // Sink
+        for msg in rcv2.iter() {
+            println!("Sink received {}", msg);
+        }
+    }).unwrap();
+}
