From Concurrent to Parallel
01:01:02
Summary
Multiprocessor systems have gone from being rare and expensive to being ubiquitous. As the hardware reality changes, so do the programs we want to write and so must the platform and libraries we rely on. In Java SE 7, the java.util.concurent package will grow to address the need to exploit finer-grained concurrency, in the form of the fork-join framework.
