Concurrent collections for C# using Parallel Extensions(software.intel.com)

submitted by mark_csharpcoder(135) 3 years, 1 month ago

One of the most difficult tasks related to concurrent programming in C# and .Net 3.5 is sharing collections, arrays or lists between many tasks running at the same time. Besides, the complexity increases when these concurrent tasks need to add and/or remove items from them. Doing this safely involves a great control of coordination data structures and the efficient use of precise locks. Luckily, the June 2008 CTP (Community Technology Preview) of Parallel Extensions to the .Net Framework added very interesting high-level coordination data structures and thread-safe collections. The result is amazing: the producer-consumer scheme complexity reduced to a minimum... read more...

Book Review: C# 2008 and 2005 Threaded Programming(devsource.com)

submitted by mark_csharpcoder(135) 3 years, 2 months ago

John Mueller reviews the book C# 2008 and 2005 Threaded Programming by Gastón C. Hillar. Many of the texts that provide the information needed to learn how to work with multiple processors are written in language that the average human doesn’t understand. With C# 2008 and 2005 Threaded Programming this problem is also relieved. read more...

Avoiding concurrency pains with C# multicore programming(packtpub.com)

submitted by mark_csharpcoder(135) 3 years, 3 months ago

This is an article written by "C# 2008 and 2005 threaded programming" author, Gaston Hillar. I think it is going to be useful to any developer involved in C# multicore and multithreaded programming. It applies an object-oriented design to simplify parallelism complexity. Very useful to simplify the multicore transformation of many applications. read more...
