  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    Methods that make use of await must be declared with the async keyword. In methods that have a return value of type Task<T>, methods declared with async must have a return statement of type assignable to T instead of Task<T>; the compiler wraps the value in the Task<T> generic.

  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. 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.

  5. File locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_locking

    A lock file is often the best approach if the resource to be controlled is not a regular file at all, so using methods for locking files does not apply. For example, a lock file might govern access to a set of related resources, such as several different files, directories, a group of disk partitions, or selected access to higher level ...

  6. Apache Thrift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Thrift

    With Thrift, it is possible to define a service and change the protocol and transport without recompiling the code. Besides the client part, Thrift includes server infrastructure such as blocking, non-blocking, and multi-threaded servers. The underlying I/O part of the stack is implemented differently for different programming languages. [9]

  7. Lock (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    PHP provides a file-based locking [17] as well as a Mutex class in the pthreads extension. [18] Python provides a low-level mutex mechanism with a Lock class from the threading module. [19] The ISO/IEC Fortran standard (ISO/IEC 1539-1:2010) provides the lock_type derived type in the intrinsic module iso_fortran_env and the lock/unlock ...

  8. Blocking (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_(computing)

    An example is "blocking on a channel" where passively waiting for the other part (i.e. no polling or spin loop) is part of the semantics of channels. [3] Correctly engineered, any of these may be used to implement reactive systems. [clarification needed] Deadlock means that processes pathologically wait for each other in a circle. As such it is ...

  9. Wait-for graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait-For_Graph

    A wait-for graph in computer science is a directed graph used for deadlock detection in operating systems and relational database systems.. In computer science, a system that allows concurrent operation of multiple processes and locking of resources and which does not provide mechanisms to avoid or prevent deadlock must support a mechanism to detect deadlocks and an algorithm for recovering ...
