OpenInsight uses an event-driven paradigm instead of a process-driven one. In some ways there isn't that much difference between them but you should become educated on events in order to fully take advantage of them.
Now, with regard to a "perpetual" process replacement, the closest equivalent in OpenInsight is "promoted" events. Depending on what you really want to do, these will probably do what you want quite nicely. If you are familiar with events in general then I suggest you read The X Events by Andrew McAuley of Sprezzatura. This will give you a primer on promoted events. I would then do a search on this website for promoted events to see how others are using them. Finally, for advanced implentation of promoted events I recommend our white paper called Creating a Custom Event.
