PC Evolution How Software Virtualization Pushes Hardware to the Back Seat
Short Description
Celebrating five generations since the birth of the computer circa 1937, our beloved computing machines have dramatically morphed shapes, sizes, and capabilities throughout the past 70 years to become what we now know as the PC. Quickly adapting to the technological advancements that have turned the original computer from a research project to man’s inseparable new best friend, the consumer’s expectations of a PC have skyrocketed. And rightfully so- as technology becomes key to our future, we naturally should be forward thinkers.

Processes, threads and synchronization
Short Description
Here we will discuss the fundamental notions which are processes and threads, in the architecture of the Windows NT/2000/XP operating systems. You must keep in mind that the CLR described in the previous chapter is a software layer loaded into a process by the runtime host when a .NET assembly is launched.

CSCE 547 Windows Programming Multi-Threading
Short Description
Multi Threading
Multithreading is a mechanism for performing two or more tasks concurrently
In Multiple CPU systems threads could be allocated to CPUs, using SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processing) Single CPU or Multiple CPUs
In Single CPU each thread is given (approx) equal fractions of CPU time
Multi thread programming is difficult when threads must be synchronized with respect to certain resources

An Introduction to Programming with C# Threads
Short Description
This paper provides an introduction to writing concurrent programs with “threads”. A threads facility allows you to write programs with multiple simultaneous points of execution, synchronizing through shared memory. The paper describes the basic thread and synchronization primitives, then for each primitive provides a tutorial on how to use it. The tutorial sections provide advice on the best ways to use the primitives, give warnings about what can go wrong and offer hints about how to avoid these pitfalls. The paper is aimed at experienced programmers who want to acquire practical expertise in writing concurrent programs. The programming language used is C#, but most of the tutorial applies equally well to other languages with thread support, such as Java.

An ASM specification of C# threads and the .NET memory model
Short Description
Abstract. We present a high-level ASM model of C# threads and the .NET memory model. We focus on purely managed, fully portable threading features of C#. The sequential model interleaves the computation steps of the currently running threads and is suitable for uniprocessors. The parallel model addresses problems of true concurrency on multiprocessor systems. The models provide a sound basis for the development of multi-threaded applications in C#.
