  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    F# added asynchronous workflows with await points in version 2.0 in 2007. [5] This influenced the async/await mechanism added to C#. [6] Microsoft first released a version of C# with async/await in the Async CTP (2011). It was later officially released in C# 5 (2012). [7] [1]: 10 Haskell lead developer Simon Marlow created the async package in ...

  3. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    In multithreaded computer programming, asynchronous method invocation (AMI), also known as asynchronous method calls or the asynchronous pattern is a design pattern in which the call site is not blocked while waiting for the called code to finish. Instead, the calling thread is notified when the reply arrives. Polling for a reply is an ...

  4. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    In C++11 a std::future provides a read-only view. The value is set directly by using a std::promise, or set to the result of a function call using std::packaged_task or std::async. In the Dojo Toolkit's Deferred API as of version 1.5, a consumer-only promise object represents a read-only view. [7]

  5. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    In the following C# code, method Helper.Method uses parameter callback as a blocking callback. Helper.Method is called with Log which acts as a callback function. When run, the following is written to the console: "Callback was: Hello world".

  6. Method chaining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_chaining

    Method chaining is a common syntax for invoking multiple method calls in object-oriented programming languages. Each method returns an object, allowing the calls to be chained together in a single statement without requiring variables to store the intermediate results.

  7. Multiple dispatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_dispatch

    The data from these papers is summarized in the following table, where the dispatch ratio DR is the average number of methods per generic function; the choice ratio CR is the mean of the square of the number of methods (to better measure the frequency of functions with a large number of methods); [2] [3] and the degree of specialization DoS is ...

  8. Calling convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calling_convention

    Registers 2 and 3 are used for parameter passing and return values; Registers 4 and 5 are also used for parameter passing; Register 6 is used for parameter passing, and must be saved and restored by the callee; Registers 7 through 13 are for use by the callee, and must be saved and restored by them; Register 14 is used for the return address

  9. Message passing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_passing

    In computer science, message passing is a technique for invoking behavior (i.e., running a program) on a computer.The invoking program sends a message to a process (which may be an actor or object) and relies on that process and its supporting infrastructure to then select and run some appropriate code.
