If you're one of many developers still uncertain about concurrent and multithreaded development
this practical cookbook will change your mind. With more than 85 code-rich recipes in this
updated second edition author Stephen Cleary demonstrates parallel processing and asynchronous
programming techniques using libraries and language features in .NET and C# 8.0. Concurrency is
now more common in responsive and scalable application development but it's still extremely
difficult to code. The detailed solutions in this cookbook show you how modern tools raise the
level of abstraction making concurrency much easier than before. Complete with ready-to-use
code and discussions about how and why solutions work these recipes help you: Get up to speed
on concurrency and async and parallel programming Use async and await for asynchronous
operations Enhance your code with asynchronous streams Explore parallel programming with .NET's
Task Parallel Library Create dataflow pipelines with .NET's TPL Dataflow library Understand the
capabilities that System.Reactive builds on top of LINQ Utilize threadsafe and immutable
collections Learn how to conduct unit testing with concurrent code Make the thread pool work
for you Enable clean cooperative cancellation Examine scenarios for combining concurrent
approaches Dive into asynchronous-friendly object-oriented programming Recognize and write
adapters for code using older asynchronous styles
