  2. Thread-local storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread-local_storage

    In computer programming, thread-local storage (TLS) is a memory management method that uses static or global memory local to a thread. The concept allows storage of data that appears to be global in a system with separate threads. Many systems impose restrictions on the size of the thread-local memory block, in fact often rather tight limits.

  3. Thread pool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_pool

    In computer programming, a thread pool is a software design pattern for achieving concurrency of execution in a computer program. Often also called a replicated workers or worker-crew model , [ 1 ] a thread pool maintains multiple threads waiting for tasks to be allocated for concurrent execution by the supervising program.

  4. Multithreading (computer architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multithreading_(computer...

    Only when the data for the previous thread had arrived, would the previous thread be placed back on the list of ready-to-run threads. For example: Cycle i: instruction j from thread A is issued. Cycle i + 1: instruction j + 1 from thread A is issued. Cycle i + 2: instruction j + 2 from thread A is issued, which is a load instruction that misses ...

  5. Thread (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(computing)

    A process with two threads of execution, running on one processor Program vs. Process vs. Thread Scheduling, Preemption, Context Switching. In computer science, a thread of execution is the smallest sequence of programmed instructions that can be managed independently by a scheduler, which is typically a part of the operating system.

  6. Memory ordering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_ordering

    [1] [4] Conversely, the memory order is called weak or relaxed when one thread cannot predict the order of operations arising from another thread. [1] [4] Many naïvely written parallel algorithms fail when compiled or executed with a weak memory order. [5] [6] The problem is most often solved by inserting memory barrier instructions into the ...

  7. Concurrent computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_computing

    This is a property of a system—whether a program, computer, or a network—where there is a separate execution point or "thread of control" for each process. A concurrent system is one where a computation can advance without waiting for all other computations to complete. [1] Concurrent computing is a form of modular programming.

  8. Monitor (synchronization) - Wikipedia

    enter the monitor: enter the method if the monitor is locked add this thread to e block this thread else lock the monitor leave the monitor: schedule return from the method wait c: add this thread to c.q schedule block this thread notify c: if there is a thread waiting on c.q select and remove one thread t from c.q (t is called "the notified ...

  9. Common Language Runtime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Language_Runtime

    The Common Language Runtime (CLR), the virtual machine component of Microsoft.NET Framework, manages the execution of .NET programs. Just-in-time compilation converts the managed code (compiled intermediate language code) into machine instructions which are then executed on the CPU of the computer. [1]
