As multicore processors become the norm, using concurrency effectively becomes essential for building high-performance applications. Java SE 5 and 6 are a huge step forward for the development of concurrent applications, with improvements to the Java Virtual Machine to support high-performance, highly scalable concurrent classes and a rich set of new concurrency building blocks. In \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eJava Concurrency in Practice\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e, the creators of these new facilities explain not only how they work and how to use them, but also the motivation and design patterns behind them.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHowever, developing, testing, and debugging multithreaded programs can still be very difficult; it is all too easy to create concurrent programs that appear to work, but fail when it matters most: in production, under heavy load. \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eJava Concurrency in Practice\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e arms readers with both the theoretical underpinnings and concrete techniques for building reliable, scalable, maintainable concurrent applications. Rather than simply offering an inventory of concurrency APIs and mechanisms, it provides design rules, patterns, and mental models that make it easier to build concurrent programs that are both correct and performant.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book covers: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Basic concepts of concurrency and thread safety \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTechniques for building and composing thread-safe classes \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUsing the concurrency building blocks in java.util.concurrent \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerformance optimization dos and don'ts \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTesting concurrent programs \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdvanced topics such as atomic variables, nonblocking algorithms, and the Java Memory Model\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I was fortunate indeed to have worked with a fantastic team on the design and implementation of the concurrency features added to the Java platform in Java 5.0 and Java 6. Now this same team provides the best explanation yet of these new features, and of concurrency in general. Concurrency is no longer a subject for advanced users only.

Each page is filled with the problems (and solutions!) that programmers struggle with every day. Effectively exploiting concurrency is becoming more and more important now that Moore's Law is delivering more cores but not faster cores, and this book will show you how to do it.\"\u003cbr\u003e--Dr. Cliff Click\u003cbr\u003eSenior Software Engineer, Azul Systems\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"I have a strong interest in concurrency, and have probably written more thread deadlocks and made more synchronization mistakes than most programmers. Brian's book is the most readable on the topic of threading and concurrency in Java, and deals with this difficult subject with a wonderful hands-on approach.
