Many OIS customers have successfully used tasking with Screen Machine.
Screen Machine protects the otherwise threading-unfriendly Motif.
There are several tasking examples that ship with the product.  All of
the data structures are not protected in the product in order to keep
performance high.  This requires that you need to understand the
Screen Machine tasking model.

If you have purchased support for the product, you can send e-mail
to support@ois.com for more help.
