How to place a relative Uri for one of your ASP.NET MVC controller's action methods

"A little while ago I wrote a blog post describing granular request validation that shipped in MVC 3 Beta. However, since then we have changed the API for this feature and that post is no longer valid. In this post I will present the new API which is usable in the recently-shipped MVC 3 Release Candidate."

"jQuery throttle / debounce allows you to rate-limit your functions in multiple useful ways. Passing a delay and callback to $.throttle returns a new function that will execute no more than once every delay milliseconds. Passing a delay and callback to $.debounce returns a new function that will execute only once, coalescing multiple sequential calls into a single execution at either the very beginning or end."

"The AsyncController class enables you to write asynchronous action methods. You can use asynchronous action methods for long-running, non-CPU bound requests. This avoids blocking the Web server from performing work while the request is being processed. A typical use for the AsyncController class is long-running Web service calls."

"In this post I would like to cover a couple of asynchronous patterns that are available in ASP.NET MVC and jQuery as it is used in MVC."

" AsyncController is introduced in ASP.NET MVC 2 while SessionLess controller is introduced in ASP.NET MVC 3. AsyncController allows you to perform long running I/O operation(s) without making your thread idle(i.e., waiting for I/O operations to complete). On the other hand, SessionLess controller allows you to execute multiple requests simultaneously for single user, which otherwise execute multiple requests sequentially due to session synchronization. Understanding these concepts may be easy for you but I have seen a lot of guys become confused on these concepts. In this article, I will show you how to use AsyncController and SessionLess controller in ASP.NET MVC application. I will also compare them and tell you what to use when, where, and the why."
