Microsoft's Parallel Extensions Library: Making multithreading easier
Microsoft is working hard to release the Parallel Extensions Library, which is a library of objects designed to speed the development of multithreaded applications. The library contains two major advantages over traditional .NET multithreading techniques. The Parallel Extensions Library encapsulates many existing concepts into prepackaged and tested...

The most ignored programming story of 2007
In my previous meta post, I promised to start the year with an article about the "sleeper" story of 2007 and describe why I think it's slipping under a lot of radars. The story is, of course, about multithreading and parallelism. To the vast majority of programmers,...

Multithreading is a verb not a noun
Steve Yegge's rather famous post, "Execution in the Kingdom of Nouns" has probably done more to frame and influence my thoughts about object-oriented programming OOP than anything else out there. In the discussion thread about my post on multithreading loops, I finally got a handle on why I feel that...

Multithreading is a verb, not a noun
Do existing MT constructs meet your needs?If you do MT work, does the way your language handles it help or hinder your work? If you have not tried MT yet, is it because the constructs make no sense?J.Ja

How important is multithreading in application development?
I think multithreading in application development is the wave of the future -- even though not all applications lend themselves to being multithreaded. In a blog post on MSDN about symmetric multicore processing being a 'dead end,' the author makes a lot of excellent points, not the least of...

The death of single threaded development
OfficeI have to disagree with the comments about Office.First, it's the developers of the Office suites that need to start using multi-threading more, rather than those of us writing VBA macros. This isn't that difficult in the Word/Excel/Access area as the work is generally easy to distribute across many cores....

Thread safety and responsibility
Today I am back onto one of my favorite topics, as of late: multithreading and data integrity. I know, some of you are probably sick of this one, but today I thought about it from a totally different angle: responsibility and ethics. No, not whether or not using a thread...
