Concurrent Programming Class Notes

Overview & Synopsis

These class notes give a course outline that is conducted indepth on concurrent programming. They include the basic concepts of parallel programming, multiprocessing, and multithreading. Threads definitions and properties are presented, such as lifecycle processes and the structure of concurrent hardware architecture. The basic algorithms form the foundation, including Kessels and ticket algorithms, with semantic and the bakery algorithm as the key synchronization tools. Another topic that the material will be discussing about concurrency issues is deadlock and speculative multithreading. This book is a resource on getting an easytoaccess introduction to concurrent programming principles, it is excellent for student and professional readers who want to learn about how to effectively manage concurrent processes in software applications.
