Sinossi

Threading and concurrency are crucial to building high-performance Java applications -- but they have a reputation for complexity. High Performance Java Computing thoroughly demystifies these advanced development techniques. It delivers practical programming solutions, proven design patterns, and a rigorously-tested code library -- everything developers need to build optimized Java software for technical, business, and E-commerce applications. Start by understanding how threading and concurrency can be used to solve a wide variety of performance problems, enabling the construction of more powerful networked applications. Master the Java 2 Threads classes, including daemon threads, thread control, scheduling, and more. Review the key problems of parallelism -- including deadlocks, race conditions, and synchronization -- and discover proven techniques for avoiding or resolving them. Finally, master advanced techniques for building optimized concurrent code, including Java monitors, parallel execution of subroutines in shared memory, and parallelizing loops.

Threading, concurrency, and beyond: Your crystal-clear Java performance guide and code library!

Threading and concurrency are crucial to building high-performance Java applications ― but they have a reputation for complexity. High-Performance Java Computing thoroughly demystifies them, helping developers leverage threading and concurrency to solve a wide variety of performance problems ― especially in networked, distributed applications. This book delivers practical solutions, proven design patterns, and a rigorously tested code library: everything you need to build optimized Java software for technical, business, and e-Commerce applications. Coverage includes:

  • Java 2 Threads classes: daemon threads, thread control, scheduling, and more
  • Solving the key problems of parallelism: deadlocks, race conditions, and synchronization
  • Advanced techniques for optimizing concurrent code
  • Java monitors, parallelizing loops, and parallel execution of subroutines in shared memory
  • New design patterns for distributed application development

There's never been a more accessible, practical guide to Java multi-threading, concurrency, and other high-performance techniques. When performance really matters, turn to High-Performance Java Computing ― and find the solution you're searching for!
