Every developer needs to know how to write multi-threaded applications in Java. This course, Applying Concurrency and Multi-threading to Common Java 8 Patterns, is a precise presentation of all the fundamentals you’ll need. You’ll learn about the main problems of concurrent programming on multicore CPU, including race condition, synchronization, reentrant lock, and deadlock. Next, you’ll cover how your application use is moved from the main memory to the CPU caches and how false sharing can occur. Finally, you’ll be introduced to the Java Memory Model and the notion of happen-before. By the end of this course, you will understand how concurrency and multi-threading work on a variety of Java patterns and you’ll be able to use this knowledge to create better apps.

Author Description:
Passionate about programming computers for over 20 years, Jose made his debut in assembler and C, C for SIMD parallel machines before adopting Java as an object-oriented language, indispensable to most major modern applications. He brings his expertise and capacity for analysis and synthesis to many projects, mainly in the lower layers, close to the data, but also on complex UI design, or in the browser.
