  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. Slab allocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slab_allocation

    The slab allocation algorithm defines the following terms: Cache: cache represents a small amount of very fast memory. A cache is a storage for a specific type of object, such as semaphores, process descriptors, file objects, etc. Slab: slab represents a contiguous piece of memory, usually made of several virtually contiguous pages. The slab is ...

  4. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    In the .NET Framework documentation, the term event-based asynchronous pattern refers to an alternative API style (available since .NET 2.0) using a method named AccomplishAsync instead of BeginAccomplish. [13] [14] A superficial difference is that in this style the return value of the long-running method is passed directly to the callback method.

  5. Asynchrony (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchrony_(computer...

    Asynchronous method dispatch (AMD), a data communication method used when there is a need for the server side to handle a large number of long lasting client requests. [3] Using synchronous method dispatch (SMD), this scenario may turn the server into an unavailable busy state resulting in a connection failure response caused by a network ...

  6. Asynchronous I/O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_I/O

    Using only these two tools (polling, and interrupts), all the other forms of asynchronous I/O discussed above may be (and in fact, are) synthesized. In an environment such as a Java virtual machine (JVM), asynchronous I/O can be synthesized even though the environment the JVM is running in may not offer it at all. This is due to the interpreted ...

    java.nio (NIO stands for New Input/Output [1] [2]) is a collection of Java programming language APIs that offer features for intensive I/O operations. It was introduced with the J2SE 1.4 release of Java by Sun Microsystems to complement an existing standard I/O. NIO was developed under the Java Community Process as JSR 51. [3]

  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.
