Calling OS executables from within a stored procedure

Does anyone know a good way to call an external program from
within a stored procedure and receive a response?  I know that
I could probably use DBMS_PIPE.  I'm just not sure how to
block other writers to the pipe before I read the response.
This external program will be called fairly often so 
concurrency and performance will be an issue.



Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
