> Currently, all parameters passed to components/dependencies API are stored in non volatile variables, because internally,  we are using a concurrent queue, which ensures "safe publication" regarding memory visibility.
> Now, this is all fine, except for the following case:
> - The application creates and initialize a Component from one thread T1.
> - Then later, from thread T2, the application starts the component (adds it to a DependencyManager object).
> In this case, we should declare all API parameters in volatile attributes in order to ensure safe visibility from T2 thread, when accessing to parameters that were set in the original T1 thread.
