Concepts of Concurrent Programming

This note is largely concerned with explicit concurrency, where concurrent behavior is specified by the program designer. It also includes a brief introduction to performance-oriented concurrency, where concurrency is used to improve program performance by taking advantage of hardware support for parallel processing. Topics covered includes: Nature of Concurrent Programs, Problems in Concurrent Programs, Properties of Concurrent Programs, Executing Concurrent Programs, Program Construction and Common Applications.
