- Improving Application Efficiency Through Chip Multi-Threading
- Chip multi-threading CMT brings to hardware the concept of multi-threading, similar to software multi-threading. A CMT-enabled processor, similar to software multi-threading, executes many software threads simultaneously within a processor on cores. So in a system with CMT processors, software threads can be executed simultaneously within one processor or across many...

- How do I... Use threading to increase performance in C#? (Part 1)
- Threading is commonly used by developers to increase the performance of applications. However, if used incorrectly threading can have the exact opposite effect. Bad threading logic can actually slow down an application, or worse, cause an application to have inconsistent exceptions. There really isn't much to be worried about though...
