  2. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    In C++11 a std::future provides a read-only view. The value is set directly by using a std::promise, or set to the result of a function call using std::packaged_task or std::async. In the Dojo Toolkit's Deferred API as of version 1.5, a consumer-only promise object represents a read-only view. [7]

  3. 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 ...

  4. Asynchronous procedure call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_procedure_call

    A reusable asynchronous procedure is termed Actor. In the Actor model two ports are used: one to receive input, and another (hidden) port to handle the input. In Dataflow programming many ports are used, passing to an execution service when all inputs are present.

  5. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    Alternatives are synchronous method invocation and future objects. [4] An example for an application that may make use of AMI is a web browser that needs to display a web page even before all images are loaded. Since method is a special case of procedure, asynchronous method invocation is a special case of asynchronous procedure call.

  6. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In the following C# code, method Helper.Method uses parameter callback as a blocking callback. Helper.Method is called with Log which acts as a callback function. When run, the following is written to the console: "Callback was: Hello world".

  7. Active object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_object

    The goal is to introduce concurrency, by using asynchronous method invocation and a scheduler for handling requests. [2] The pattern consists of six elements: [3] A proxy, which provides an interface towards clients with publicly accessible methods. An interface which defines the method request on an active object. A list of pending requests ...

    Register 6 is used for parameter passing, and must be saved and restored by the callee; Registers 7 through 13 are for use by the callee, and must be saved and restored by them; Register 14 is used for the return address; Register 15 is used as the stack pointer; Floating-point registers 0 and 2 are used for parameter passing and return values

  9. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    Most modern implementations of a function call use a call stack, a special case of the stack data structure, to implement function calls and returns. Each procedure call creates a new entry, called a stack frame , at the top of the stack; when the procedure returns, its stack frame is deleted from the stack, and its space may be used for other ...
