Parallel LINQ (PLINQ) with Visual Studio 2010(leniel.net)

submitted by leniel(489) 2 years, 3 months ago

On the last day of May I wrote about how to calculate prime numbers with LINQ in C#. To close that post I said that I’d use the primeNumbers delegate to evaluate PLINQ (Parallel LINQ) and measure the performance gains when the same calculation is done in parallel instead of in a sequential fashion. As promised, today I show the performance gains when the same delegate is run in 2 cores (parallel) instead of only 1 core (sequential). In this post you'll also see the new parallel debugging windows that come with Visual Studio 2010: Parallel Stacks and Parallel Tasks. read more...

Creating a simple, reusable Windows Service (template code) - Part II(dotnetzone.gr)

In part I, we examined how we can extend the Service Control methods by adding methods for all states of the Windows service in addition to the two methods provided by the designer. As you may remember, each of those methods called our own private Service Control method. Our private Service Control methods are implemented below: read more...

Creating a simple, reusable Windows Service (template code) - Part I(dotnetzone.gr)

submitted by sotirisf(315) 5 years, 1 month ago

In this article, we'll see a way to create a simple Windows Service that can be reusable in that it can be used as the basis for any repeated operation that we would like to transform to a Windows Service.In other words, we can create our own assembly and then have the Windows Service call its entry point repeatedly over a period of time. By extending the code provided, you can even have multiple threads running at the same time. read more...
