Hands-On Parallel Programming with C# 8 and .NET Core 3

Hands-On Parallel Programming with C# 8 and .NET Core 3

Overview of this book

In today’s world, every CPU has a multi-core processor. However, unless your application has implemented parallel programming, it will fail to utilize the hardware’s full processing capacity. This book will show you how to write modern software on the optimized and high-performing .NET Core 3 framework using C# 8. Hands-On Parallel Programming with C# 8 and .NET Core 3 covers how to build multithreaded, concurrent, and optimized applications that harness the power of multi-core processors. Once you’ve understood the fundamentals of threading and concurrency, you’ll gain insights into the data structure in .NET Core that supports parallelism. The book will then help you perform asynchronous programming in C# and diagnose and debug parallel code effectively. You’ll also get to grips with the new Kestrel server and understand the difference between the IIS and Kestrel operating models. Finally, you’ll learn best practices such as test-driven development, and run unit tests on your parallel code. By the end of the book, you’ll have developed a deep understanding of the core concepts of concurrency and asynchrony to create responsive applications that are not CPU-intensive.

Section 3: Asynchronous Programming Using C#

In this section, you will learn about another important aspect of making performant programs (using asynchronous programming techniques) while keeping an eye on how this was done in earlier versions compared to the newer async and await constructs.

This section comprises the following chapters:

  • Chapter 8, Introduction to Asynchronous Programming
  • Chapter 9, Async, Await, and Task-Based Asynchronous Programming Basics
