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.

This resource is aimed primarily at explicit concurrency, where a programmer explicitly declares the concurrent behavior within the code. It explains the nature and properties of concurrent programs as well as the issues that arise during execution and how to build such programs efficiently. The text also considers performanceoriented concurrencythat is, the way to exploit a certain capability of hardware in order to realize an increase of efficiency of a program. This material, by taking common applications as a look and common problems present in concurrent programming, acts as a basic guide for anyone interested in knowing the design and implementation of robust concurrent systems.

This web resource is a comprehensive tutorial on concurrent and distributed programming with all basics illustrated with practical examples. It starts with an overview of concurrency, illustrating critical principles with simple programming examples. Notes provide overviews of several programming languagesincluding C, C, Java, Ada, and Perlshowing how each approaches concurrency. It encompasses mutual exclusion, message passing, and both the standard and an enhanced version of the classic Dining Philosophers problem. It also touches on threading in Java and Ada as well as introduces the POSIX threads library pthreads for C programs. This book is perfect for students and practitioners who need to know the underpinning of concurrent programming in different environments.
