Collections for Concurrency
Friday - Sep 30 10:45 AM CDT - Washington
Traditional collections on the Java platform focused on providing thread-safety at the expense of performance or scalability. More modern data structures strive to provide performance without compromising thread-safety. Some of them require you to adopt to a different semantics or programming model. In this presentation we will explore some data structures that can help reach both thread-safety and reasonable performance.
Concurrent collections, immutable collections, operations on and performance of lists, blocking queues, and tries.
