| Abstract: |
The article discusses the use of advanced synchronization methods to increase the performance of multicore software and offer better scalability. Topics include centralized shared versions of familiar FIFO (first in, first out) queues, the delegation of scaling locking, and the use of advance synchronization methods to help build high-performance software. |
