In-Depth Tutorial on Parallelism and Asynchronous Programming
Introduction In modern software development, improving application responsiveness and performance is critical. Two fundamental concepts that help achieve this are parallelism and asynchronous programming. Although often used interchangeably, they represent distinct approaches to handling multiple tasks and can be combined for maximum efficiency. This tutorial provides an in-depth exploration of parallelism and asynchronous programming: what they mean, how they differ, how they relate to concurrency, and how to implement them effectively. We will also include practical examples and point to valuable resources for further learning. ...
