Concurrent programming
Concurrent programming is a fundamental concept in Computer Science that deals with the design and implementation of programs that can execute multiple tasks simultaneously, improving the overall performance and efficiency of a system. This approach is crucial in modern computing, where Multi-core processors and Distributed systems are prevalent. Concurrent programming involves the use of Thread (computing)s, Process (computing)es, and Synchronization (computer science) techniques to manage shared resources and avoid conflicts. It is closely related to Parallel computing, which focuses on executing multiple tasks simultaneously on multiple processors. The concept of Immutability is also important in concurrent programming, as it helps to ensure that shared data is not modified unexpectedly.
