| Abstract: | This is a discussion about the evolution of CPU hardware including multicore development, parallel programming, multiprocessing. The idea of a process as the basis unit of execution in an operation is explored. Processes, threads and processors are explored as a basis for multiprocessing. Performance of threads, implementing threads and thread lifecycle are discussed. Several examples of threads and processes are explored. Finally, locks are introduced as critical to concurrency |
