  2. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    Futures can easily be implemented in channels: a future is a one-element channel, and a promise is a process that sends to the channel, fulfilling the future. [104] [105] This allows futures to be implemented in concurrent programming languages with support for channels, such as CSP and Go. The resulting futures are explicit, as they must be ...

  4. Concurrent computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_computing

    Concurrent components communicate by altering the contents of shared memory locations (exemplified by Java and C#). This style of concurrent programming usually needs the use of some form of locking (e.g., mutexes, semaphores, or monitors) to coordinate between threads. A program that properly implements any of these is said to be thread-safe.

  6. Evaluation strategy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaluation_strategy

    In a programming language, an evaluation strategy is a set of rules for evaluating expressions. [1] The term is often used to refer to the more specific notion of a parameter-passing strategy [2] that defines the kind of value that is passed to the function for each parameter (the binding strategy) [3] and whether to evaluate the parameters of a function call, and if so in what order (the ...

  7. Thread pool - Wikipedia

    A sample thread pool (green boxes) with waiting tasks (blue) and completed tasks (yellow) In computer programming, a thread pool is a software design pattern for achieving concurrency of execution in a computer program.

  8. Channel (programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In computing, a channel is a model for interprocess communication and synchronization via message passing. A message may be sent over a channel, and another process or thread is able to receive messages sent over a channel it has a reference to, as a stream. Different implementations of channels may be buffered or not, and either synchronous or ...
