Not really understanding this.

Not exactly. Windows does has some signaling objects like Unix/Linux,
but they exist only in the filesystem and network stack, and they are
signaled only by events within those subsystems. IOW, they can't be
signaled manually.

For general communication/synchronization purposes Windows uses an
event based notification system. See:
