Hi Irfan,

Adding a director is pretty straight-forward.  You just need to extend 
ptolemy.actor.Director then make a Director stub and put it in 
src/Directors.  You can use one of the existing stubs as a model.  You 
may want to extend one of the existing directors that runs the execution 
model you want, because developing your own execution model can be a bit 
tricky, especially if you want to use multiple threads.

I don't know of any tutorials on this, but the PTII folks may have one. 
  You might look here: http://ptolemy.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/
