Synchronization with the Concurrency Runtime - Part 3
In my previous posts, I addressed the motivation behind using concurrency runtime’s synchronization primitives and also introduced Critical Section and reader writer lock. In this blog, I will cover concurrency runtime’s event. Event This is a bi-state Read More...
Samples posted for the Parallel Pattern Library and Concurrency Runtime
Following the release of Visual Studio 2010, we've just published a set of sample applications for using the Parallel Pattern Library, the Agents Library and the Concurrency Runtime on code gallery. These supplement the documentation and samples provided Read More...
