  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    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 last resource to finish before starting to load the next.

  3. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    A timeout can also be specified on the wait using the wait_for() or wait_until() member functions to avoid indefinite blocking. If the future arose from a call to std::async then a blocking wait (without a timeout) may cause synchronous invocation of the function to compute the result on the waiting thread.

    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.

JoCaml—concurrent and distributed channel based, extension of OCaml, implements the join-calculus of processes; Join Java—concurrent, based on Java language

  6. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    A callback is often back on the level of the original caller. In computer programming, a callback is a function that is stored as data (a reference) and designed to be called by another function – often back to the original abstraction layer.

  7. Exponential backoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff

    The time delay is usually measured in slots, which are fixed-length periods (or slices) of time on the network. In a binary exponential backoff algorithm (i.e. one where b = 2), after c collisions, each retransmission is delayed by a random number of slot times between 0 and 2 c − 1. After the first collision, each sender will wait 0 or 1 ...

  8. 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.

  9. HTTP pipelining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_pipelining

    HTTP pipelining is a feature of HTTP/1.1, which allows multiple HTTP requests to be sent over a single TCP connection without waiting for the corresponding responses. [1] HTTP/1.1 requires servers to respond to pipelined requests correctly, with non-pipelined but valid responses even if server does not support HTTP pipelining.
