  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    The asynchronous workflows are implemented as CE (computation expressions). They can be defined without specifying any special context (like async in C#). F# asynchronous workflows append a bang (!) to keywords to start asynchronous tasks. The following async function downloads data from an URL using an asynchronous workflow:

  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.

  4. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    In computer science, futures, promises, delays, and deferreds are constructs used for synchronizing program execution in some concurrent programming languages.Each is an object that acts as a proxy for a result that is initially unknown, usually because the computation of its value is not yet complete.

  5. Lazy loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_loading

    Lazy loading (also known as asynchronous loading) is a technique used in computer programming, especially web design and web development, to defer initialization of an object until it is needed. It can contribute to efficiency in the program's operation if properly and appropriately used.

  6. Asynchrony (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    Asynchrony, in computer programming, refers to the occurrence of events independent of the main program flow and ways to deal with such events. These may be "outside" events such as the arrival of signals, or actions instigated by a program that take place concurrently with program execution, without the program hanging to wait for results. [1]

  7. Ajax (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_(programming)

    Ajax (also AJAX / ˈ eɪ dʒ æ k s /; short for "asynchronous JavaScript and XML" [1] [2]) is a set of web development techniques that uses various web technologies on the client-side to create asynchronous web applications.

  8. Comet (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet_(programming)

    The browser makes an asynchronous request of the server, which may wait for data to be available before responding. The response can contain encoded data (typically XML or JSON) or Javascript to be executed by the client. At the end of the processing of the response, the browser creates and sends another XHR, to await the next event.

  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.
