TheLockandConditioninterfaces give you a high degree of control over locking. However, in most situations, you don’t need that control, because you can use a mechanism that is built into the Java language. Ever since version 1.0,every objectin Java has an intrinsic lock. If a method is ...
Synchronization is based on the concept of the monitor. An object that serves as a mutually exclusive lock is called a monitor. Only one thread can own a monitor. A monitor can be considered similar to a small box that can hold only one thread at a time. If one thread enters the monit...
The first article in this series on thread synchronization covered the fundamentals of race conditions, lock objects, condition objects, and theawait,signal, andsignalAllmethods. The second article addressed intrinsic locks, thesynchronizedkeyword, synchronized blocks, ad hoc locks, and the concept of ...
The monitor concept has been widely used in a concurrent programming environment for implicitly ensuring mutual exclusion and explicitly achieving process synchronization. It has also been extended to support high-level distributed programming. In this paper, we present JDM, a distributed monitor ...

Thread synchronization is a fundamental concept in concurrent programming, crucial for ensuring that multiple threads can operate on shared resources without causing data corruption or inconsistency. With the rise of multi-core processors and the need for parallel processing, understanding thread synchronizat...

Synchronization is a very important concept in computer science and engineering. It is a required topic in courses of various levels concerning operating systems, system programming, uniprocessor/multiprocessor systems, distributed systems, computer networks, and databases. Nevertheless, due to the dynamic...
For example, the java.util.Calendar class declares a public static synchronized Locale [] getAvailableLocales() method. Because class methods have no concept of a this reference, from where does the class method acquire its lock? Class methods acquire their locks from class objects—each loaded ...
This is implemented using a concept called monitors. Each object in Java is associated with a monitor, which a thread can lock or unlock. Only one thread at a time may hold a lock on a monitor.Thread Synchronization in JavaJava programming language provides a very handy way of creating ...
