  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    Async methods usually return either void, Task, Task<T>, [13]: 35 [16]: 546–547 [1]: 22, 182 ValueTask or ValueTask<T>. [13]: 651–652 [1]: 182–184 User code can define custom types that async methods can return through custom async method builders but this is an advanced and rare scenario. [17]

  3. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    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.

  4. Input/output automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input/output_automaton

    Intuitively, the send action can be executed any time; it causes the addition of the message m to the end of the queue of messages in che channel. The receive action removes and returns the first element of the queue. [1] Tasks. tasks(C i,j), represents a task

  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. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    In a system supporting parallel message passing but not pipelining, the message sends x <- a() and y <- b() in the above example could proceed in parallel, but the send of t1 <- c(t2) would have to wait until both t1 and t2 had been received, even when x, y, t1, and t2 are on the same remote machine. The relative latency advantage of pipelining ...

  7. Asynchronous procedure call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_procedure_call

    The life cycle of an APC consists of 2 stages: the passive stage, when it passively waits for input data, and active state, when that data is calculated in the same way as at the usual procedure call. A reusable asynchronous procedure is termed Actor.

  8. 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.

  9. Asynchronous I/O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_I/O

    This approach is called asynchronous input/output. Any task that depends on the I/O having completed (this includes both using the input values and critical operations that claim to assure that a write operation has been completed) still needs to wait for the I/O operation to complete, and thus is still blocked, but other processing that does ...
