  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    The asynchronous workflows are implemented as CE (computation expressions). They can be defined without specifying any special context (like async in C#). F# asynchronous workflows append a bang (!) to keywords to start asynchronous tasks. The following async function downloads data from an URL using an asynchronous workflow:

  3. 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.

  4. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    In multithreaded computer programming, asynchronous method invocation (AMI), also known as asynchronous method calls or the asynchronous pattern is a design pattern in which the call site is not blocked while waiting for the called code to finish. Instead, the calling thread is notified when the reply arrives. Polling for a reply is an ...

  5. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    Use of futures may be implicit (any use of the future automatically obtains its value, as if it were an ordinary reference) or explicit (the user must call a function to obtain the value, such as the get method of java.util.concurrent.Futurein Java). Obtaining the value of an explicit future can be called stinging or forcing. Explicit futures ...

  6. Swift (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swift_(programming_language)

    An async function is defined with the async keyword after the parameter list. When calling an async function the await keyword must be written before the function to indicate that execution will potentially suspend while calling function. While a function is suspended the program may run some other concurrent function in the same program.

  7. Signal (IPC) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_(IPC)

    In particular, the POSIX specification and the Linux man page signal (7) require that all system functions directly or indirectly called from a signal function are async-signal safe. [6] [7] The signal-safety(7) man page gives a list of such async-signal safe system functions (practically the system calls), otherwise it is an undefined behavior ...

  8. Asynchronous I/O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_I/O

    In computer science, asynchronous I/O (also non-sequential I/O) is a form of input/output processing that permits other processing to continue before the I/O operation has finished. A name used for asynchronous I/O in the Windows API is overlapped I/O .

  9. Join-pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Join-pattern

    Asynchronous : It could also use an asynchronous channel which return no result but take arguments. The continuation of an asynchronous pattern runs in a newly spawned thread. A join pattern may be purely asynchronous, provided its continuation is a subroutine and its When clause only lists asynchronous channels. [6]
