Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

As processors become faster and multiprocessor systems become cheaper, theneed to take advantage of multithreading in order to achieve full hardwareresource utilization only increases the importance of being able to incorporateconcurrency in a wide variety of application categories. For many developers,concurrency remains a mystery. Developing, testing and debuggingmultithreaded programs is extremely difficult because concurrency hazards donot manifest themselves uniformly or reliably. This book is intended to beneither an introduction to concurrency (any threading chapter in an introbook does that) nor is it an encyclopedic reference of All Things Concurrency(that would be Doug Lea's Concurrent Programming in Java). Instead, this titleis a combination of concepts, guidelines, and examples intended to assistdevelopers in the difficult process of understanding concurrency and its newtools in J2SE 5.0. Filled with contributions from Java gurus such as Josh Bloch,David Holmes and Doug Lea, this book provides any Java programmers withthe basic building blocks they need to gain a basic understanding ofconcurrency and its benefits.
