Résumé

An in-depth introduction to concurrent and distributed computing with Java

Combining the two key types of Java programming, Concurrent and Distributed Computing in Java offers both professionals and students a comprehensive guide to fundamental concepts necessary for mastering Java programming.

The text is presented in two parts. The first deals with techniques for programming in shared-memory based systems and covers concepts in Java such as:

Threads
Synchronized methods
Waits and notify
Multi-threaded programming
Algorithms for mutual exclusion, consensus, atomic objects, and wait-free data structures

The second half of the text deals with programming in a message-passing system, and covers:

Resource allocation problems
Logical clocks
Global property detection
Leader election
Message ordering
Agreement algorithms
Checkpointing
Message logging

Avoiding excessive mathematical notation while explaining important concepts with both rigor and clarity, this up-to-date text will prove a valuable resource for interested professionals and students alike.
