        In this library, <span class="emphasis"><em>asynchronous socket operations</em></span> are
        those member functions having prefix <code class="computeroutput">async_</code>.

<p>
        For an object <code class="computeroutput">s</code>, a program may initiate asynchronous socket
        operations such that there are multiple simultaneously outstanding asynchronous
        operations.

      </p>
<p>
        then the <code class="computeroutput">buffers</code> are filled in the order in which these operations
        were issued. The order of invocation of the completion handlers for these
        operations is unspecified.
