  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    It is also possible to await methods that have a return type of Task or Task<T> that are declared without async. The following async method downloads data from a URL using await . Because this method issues a task for each URI before requiring completion with the await keyword, the resources can load at the same time instead of waiting for the ...

  3. Non-blocking algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-blocking_algorithm

    A follow-up paper by Kogan and Petrank [20] provided a method for making wait-free algorithms fast and used this method to make the wait-free queue practically as fast as its lock-free counterpart. A subsequent paper by Timnat and Petrank [21] provided an automatic mechanism for generating wait-free data structures from lock-free ones. Thus ...

  4. Fork–join model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork–join_model

    Implementations of the fork–join model will typically fork tasks, fibers or lightweight threads, not operating-system-level "heavyweight" threads or processes, and use a thread pool to execute these tasks: the fork primitive allows the programmer to specify potential parallelism, which the implementation then maps onto actual parallel execution. [1]

  5. Monitor (synchronization) - Wikipedia

    enter the monitor: enter the method if the monitor is locked add this thread to e block this thread else lock the monitor leave the monitor: schedule return from the method wait c: add this thread to c.q schedule block this thread notify c: if there is a thread waiting on c.q select and remove one thread t from c.q (t is called "the notified ...

  6. Busy waiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busy_waiting

    The following C code examples illustrate two threads that share a global integer i. The first thread uses busy-waiting to check for a change in the value of i : #include <pthread.h> #include <stdatomic.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> /* i is global, so it is visible to all functions.

  7. Asynchronous I/O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_I/O

    Like the process method, but with lower overhead and without the data isolation that hampers coordination of the flows. Each LWP or thread itself uses traditional blocking synchronous I/O, which simplifies programming logic; this is a common paradigm used in many programming languages including Java and Rust.

  8. Barrier (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrier_(computer_science)

    This example doesn't use pthread_join() to wait for 2 "newly created" threads to complete. It calls pthread_barrier_wait() inside main() , in order to block the main thread, so that the process will be blocked until 2 threads finish its operation after 5 seconds wait (line 9 - sleep(5) ).

  9. Comparison of programming languages (syntax) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    Block comments in Perl are considered part of the documentation, and are given the name Plain Old Documentation (POD). Technically, Perl does not have a convention for including block comments in source code, but POD is routinely used as a workaround. PHP. PHP supports standard C/C++ style comments, but supports Perl style as well. Python
