java threads

Threads　are　essential　to　Java　programming,　but　learning　to　use　them　effectively　is　a　nontrivial　task.　This　new　edition　of　the　classic　Java　Threads　shows　you　how　to　take　full　advantage　of　Java's　threading　facilities　and　brings　you　up-to-date　with　the　watershed　changes　in　Java　2　Standard　Edition　version　.　It　provides　a　thorough,　step-by-step　approach　to　threads　programming. Java's　threading　system　is　simple　relative　to　other　threading　systems.　In　earlier　versions　of　Java,　this　simplicity　came　with　tradeoffs:　some　of　the　advanced　features　in　other　threading　systems　were　not　available　in　Java.　J2SE　　changes　all　that:　it　provides　a　large　number　of　new　thread-related　classes　that　make　the　task　of　writing　multithreaded　programs　that　much　easier. You'll　learn　where　to　use　threads　to　increase　efficiency,　how　to　use　them　effectively,　and　how　to　avoid　common　mistakes.　This　book　discusses　problems　like　deadlock,　race　conditions,　and　starvation　in　detail,　helping　you　to　write　code　without　hidden　bugs.
