2. Concurrent computing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_computing

   For example, concurrent processes can be executed on one core by interleaving the execution steps of each process via time-sharing slices: only one process runs at a time, and if it does not complete during its time slice, it is paused, another process begins or resumes, and then later the original process is resumed. In this way, multiple ...

3. Computer multitasking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_multitasking

   Often multitasking operating systems include measures to change the priority of individual tasks, so that important jobs receive more processor time than those considered less significant. Depending on the operating system, a task might be as large as an entire application program, or might be made up of smaller threads that carry out portions ...

4. Thread pool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_pool

   The number of threads may be dynamically adjusted during the lifetime of an application based on the number of waiting tasks. For example, a web server can add threads if numerous web page requests come in and can remove threads when those requests taper down. [disputed – discuss] The cost of having a larger thread pool is increased resource ...

6. Real-time operating system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_operating_system

   A real-time operating system (RTOS) is an operating system (OS) for real-time computing applications that processes data and events that have critically defined time constraints. An RTOS is distinct from a time-sharing operating system, such as Unix , which manages the sharing of system resources with a scheduler, data buffers, or fixed task ...

7. Work stealing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_stealing

   In parallel computing, work stealing is a scheduling strategy for multithreaded computer programs. It solves the problem of executing a dynamically multithreaded computation, one that can "spawn" new threads of execution, on a statically multithreaded computer, with a fixed number of processors (or cores).

8. Automatic parallelization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_parallelization

   For example, consider a loop that on each iteration applies a hundred operations, and runs for a thousand iterations. This can be thought of as a grid of 100 columns by 1000 rows, a total of 100,000 operations. Cyclic multi-threading assigns each row to a different thread. Pipelined multi-threading assigns each column to a different thread.

9. pthreads - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pthreads

   The POSIX semaphore API works with POSIX threads but is not part of the threads standard, having been defined in the POSIX.1b, Real-time extensions (IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993) standard. Consequently, the semaphore procedures are prefixed by sem_ instead of pthread_.
