Java Threads Demystified by Pearson

Modern computer architectures rely on multiple ultrafast cores, which can only be fully utilized by multithreaded programs. To write such programs, you need to know how threads work, how to prevent race conditions, how to get thread cooperation, and what Java platform utilities are built on top of threads, like executors and thread-safe collections. In this course, discover how to leverage the Java threading model effectively by learning about the main features: synchronization, interrupts, intrinsic locks, and explicit locks. Explore Java threads and virtual threads introduced in Java 21. Learn how to write multithreaded code that avoids thread-safety issues and performance pitfalls.
