In this Java threads primer, Cameron Laird hits some of the high (and low) points of threads as a concurrent programming technique.

Multi-threading is all about breaking large applications into several smaller pieces to boost performance. A thread is start and end at clearly identifiable points. They may run either ...

Cameron Laird revisits the practice and concepts of multithreaded programming in Java, this time focusing on more intermediate programming solutions for today's distributed computing problems.

Writing multithreaded applications in Java can trip up beginner and intermediate programmers alike. Before you tie yourself in a knot, learn how to sidestep these common threading mistakes.
