Concurrency: Working with shared data using threads

In continuation with the last week’s experiment on protecting shared data in a concurrent system, let’s look at how we can make it work using C++ and threads.

Component System using C++ Multiple Inheritance

Few days back, I talked about designing Component System using Objective-C and message forwarding. Today, to carry the conversation forward, we shall see how can the same Component System be designed with C++, and also why C++ is a better language choice for such a design.

Concurrency: Spawning Independent Tasks

First step in getting with concurrency is spawning tasks in background thread.

The time everybody was speculating for so long has finally arrived. The processors aren’t getting any faster. The processors are hitting the physical thresholds. If we try to run the processors, as they are with current technology, they’re getting over-heated. Moore’s law is breaking down. Quoting Herb Sutter, ‘The free lunch is over‘.
