Java Concurrency One Page

The document provides an overview of Java concurrency concepts, including threads, race conditions, and the use of synchronized and volatile keywords. It highlights the importance of atomic classes, ExecutorService for managing thread pools, and CompletableFuture for asynchronous programming. Additionally, it discusses strategies to avoid deadlocks through proper lock management.

Java Concurrency

Java With DSA — One-Page Study Document

Threads
Threads share heap memory while each thread has its own stack. Concurrency coordinates multiple tasks; parallelism executes tasks
simultaneously.

Race Condition
Occurs when correctness depends on timing. Operations such as count++ are compound operations and are not inherently atomic.

synchronized
Provides mutual exclusion and happens-before guarantees around monitor locking. Keep critical sections focused but correct.

volatile
Provides visibility and ordering guarantees but does not make compound operations atomic.

Atomic Classes
AtomicInteger, AtomicLong and related classes provide atomic operations using mechanisms such as compare-and-set.

ExecutorService
Use managed thread pools instead of creating unlimited threads. Understand pool sizing, task queues, shutdown and rejection policies.

CompletableFuture
Supports asynchronous composition. thenApply transforms results, thenCompose chains asynchronous stages, and
exceptionally/handle manage failures.

Deadlocks
Avoid circular lock acquisition and inconsistent lock ordering. Establish a predictable lock hierarchy when multiple locks are required.
