COMPILE TIME More Concurrent Programming Topics page next >> COMPILE TIME More Concurrent Programming Topics by Benjamin Chelf In the past two months we've introduced threads and mutexes, the locking mechanism used to prevent race conditions in threaded applications. In this month's column, we'll look at two types of concurrent programming techniques used to synchronize the execution of code in threads. Hopefully, this discussion will further your perception of locks and how they are used in concurrent programming. Recall that a mutex is a lock that only one thread can "hold" at any given time. If a thread tries to acquire the lock while another thread "holds" it, that thread will be blocked until the lock is released. This mechanism is quite helpful when you want only one thread executing certain code at a given time (for example, when a common variable's value is read and then written).

March 2002 / FEATURE Common Concurrent Programming Errors page next >> FEATURE Common Concurrent Programming Errors Things can get tricky when a program runs in multiple threads. by Henry Gabb C oncurrent programming has been around for a long time. Programmers have typically used threads to express concurrency. Mapping independent tasks to threads gives the operating system greater flexibility in scheduling, which helps hide program latency. While one thread waits for data, the operating system can run another. In addition, most systems are capable of doing computation and I/O simultaneously, provided that computation and I/O are independent tasks mapped to threads. With symmetric multiprocessors (SMP) becoming more common, programmers are starting to use threads to take advantage of the performance benefits of parallel computing. (For an introduction to threads and their uses, see the four-part "Compile Time" series mentioned in the Resources box.) Concurrency adds a temporal component to coding that can be confusing at first. It also makes debugging harder because errors can be difficult to reproduce. Fortunately, the same types of errors tend to appear over and over again. This article will try to show you what not to do, hopefully avoiding bugs in the first place (or at least making it easier to spot errors in existing programs). The concurrent programming errors described in this article are divided into two categories those causing data races and those causing deadlock. Most of the example programs sometimes execute correctly and sometimes don't. That's the difficulty of debugging concurrent programs. Multithreaded programs that work fine during testing often fail in the hands of the end-user.

48. The Functional Logic Language Curry
Multiparadigm declarative programming language seamlessly merges functional, logic, and concurrent programming paradigms; covers the most important operational principles in the area of integrated functional logic languages.
http://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/~curry/

A Truly Integrated Functional Logic Language
Curry is a universal programming language aiming to amalgamate the most important declarative programming paradigms, namely functional programming and logic programming . Moreover, it also covers the most important operational principles developed in the area of integrated functional logic languages : "residuation" and "narrowing" (you find here a survey on functional logic programming). Curry combines in a seamless way features from functional programming (nested expressions, higher-order functions, lazy evaluation), logic programming (logical variables, partial data structures, built-in search), and concurrent programming (concurrent evaluation of expressions with synchronization on logical variables). Moreover, Curry provides additional features in comparison to the pure languages (compared to functional programming: search, computing with partial information; compared to logic programming: more efficient evaluation due to the deterministic and demand-driven evaluation of functions). The development of Curry is an international initiative intended to provide a common platform for the research, teaching and application of integrated functional logic languages. The design of Curry is mainly discussed in the

Parallel programming
Parallel programming , or concurent programming is the technique of computer programming that provide for the execution of operations (either actually or apparently) concurrently, either within a single computer, or across a number of systems. In the latter case, the term distributed computing is used. Multiprocessor machines achieve better performance by taking an advantage of this kind of programming. Parallel programming or computing is the splitting of a single task into a number of subtasks that can be computed relatively independently and then aggregated to form a single coherent solution. Distributed computing can be defined as a method of information processing in which work is performed by separate computers linked through a communications network. Parallel programming is most often used for tasks that can easily broken down into independent tasks such as purely mathematical problems e.g. factorisation. Problems such as these are known to be 'embarrassingly parallel'. Pioneers in the field of concurrent programming include Edsger Dijkstra and C. A. R. Hoare

Abstract
Java threads enable programmers to write parallel programs very easily and conveniently. However, the current Java specification does not adequately provide for the protection of shared resources or for deadlock detection, two of the most common problems arising from parallel programs. The ability to solve these problems is crucial for Java concurrent programming. In this paper, we introduce and implement a model that can aid in writing parallel programs by providing shared resource protection and deadlock detection.
Introduction
The increasing use of parallel systems and programs in many different fields has brought new attention to how threads cooperate and share data. Parallel programs are used in such critical and sensitive environments as database operation and manipulation, data collection and system maintenance tasks. With an increasing emphasis being placed on the World Wide Web and on platform-independent tools, Java is positioned to become the language of choice for many applications, including parallel programming. While it provides some solid facilities for basic threads programming, Java does not adequately provide for shared resource protection or have the ability to detect deadlock. Adequate Java support for these features would make Java threads even more effective for parallel programming. Let us consider two simple applications that illustrate the need for these features. First, consider a bank with 2 ATM machines. Bob and Jane share an account with a current balance of $500, and they each make a different transaction at the exact same time. Bob wants to withdraw $100 and Jane wants to deposit $150. If this scenario proceeds, without provisions for data protection, the resulting balance will be either ($500 - 100) = $400 or ($500 + 150) = $650, both of which are incorrect. This, of course, does not happen, and the correct balance will include both transactions, leaving the final balance at ($500 - 100 + 150) = $550. Second, consider the Dining Philosophers scenario

In Concurrent Programming in Java, Second Edition , you will find thoroughly updated coverage of the Java 2 platform and new or expanded coverage of:
  • Memory model Cancellation Portable parallel programming Utility classes for concurrency control
The Java platform provides a broad and powerful set of APIs, tools, and technologies. One of its most powerful capabilities is the built-in support for threads. This makes concurrent programming an attractive yet challenging option for programmers using the Java programming language. This book shows readers how to use the Java platform's threading model more precisely by helping them to understand the patterns and tradeoffs associated with concurrent programming. You will learn how to initiate, control, and coordinate concurrent activities using the class java.lang.Thread, the keywords synchronized and volatile, and the methods wait, notify, and notifyAll. In addition, you will find detailed coverage of all aspects of concurrent programming, including such topics as confinement and synchronization, deadlocks and conflicts, state-dependent action control, asynchronous message passing and control flow, coordinated interaction, and structuring web-based and computational services. The book targets intermediate to advanced programmers interested in mastering the complexities of concurrent programming. Taking a design pattern approach, the book offers standard design techniques for creating and implementing components that solve common concurrent programming challenges. The numerous code examples throughout help clarify the subtleties of the concurrent programming concepts discussed.

Concurrent programming language
Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition Concurrent programming languages are those that define commands In telecommunication, the term command has the following meanings: An order for an action to take place. In data transmission, an instruction sent by the primary station instructing a secondary station to perform some specific function. In signaling systems, a control signal. In computer programming, that part of a computer instruction word that specifies the operation to be performed. See command (computing) for detail.

Depending on the context, the term may apply to both the information contents and its actual presentation. In the communications discipline, a message is information which is sent from a source to a receiver. Some common definitions include:
  • Any thought or idea expressed briefly in a plain or secret language, prepared in a form suitable for transmission by any means of communication.
  • An arbitrary amount of information whose beginning and end are defined or implied.

60. Concurrent Programming
Previous Contents Next Chapter 1 concurrent programming. Joinpattern synchronization expresses many programming paradigms, either concurrent or sequential.
http://pauillac.inria.fr/join/manual/manual002.html
Chapter 1 Concurrent programming
This part of the manual is a tutorial introduction to the join-calculus. This chapter presents small, local, examples. Chapter deals with the distributed features.
1.1 Conventions
Examples are given as join-calculus source, followed by the output of the compiler when enabled to print types. For instance, here is the definition of a simple top-level value binding: # let x = 1 # ;; val x : int An example may span over several programs chunks. Here is another binding: # let y = x+1 # ;; val y : int In the end, the output generated by the execution of the example is shown: # spawn echo(y) # ;; Therefore, to execute the example above, it suffices to concatenate the three source chunks above in some file a.j (erasing the `` '' characters), then to compile a.j by the command jcc -i a.j , and finally to run the produced code by the command ./a.out . (Option -i enables the output of inferred types).
1.2 Basics
Join-calculus programs are made of processes and expressions . Roughly, processes are executed asynchronously and produce no result, whereas expressions are evaluated synchronously and their evaluation produces values. Processes communicate by sending messages on channels or port names. Messages carried by channels are made of zero or more values and channels are values themselves. By contrast with other process calculi (such as the pi-calculus and its derived programming language Pict), channels and the processes that listen on them are defined by a single language construct. This feature allows considering (and implementing) channels as functions, when channels are used as functions.
