Multi-threaded Web Applications - Case II: Port Scanner
This article continues the 4-parts series of Multi-threaded Web Applications. In the first part, I have demonstrated how you can use multi-threading with ASP.NET to make a web based search engine more responsive, and to reduce the time required to compose the result. In this article, I will demonstrate how you can apply the same technique to a web based port scanner.
Multithreading Part 2: Understanding the System.Threading.Thread Class
In this article we will study the .NET threading API, how to create threads in C#, start and stop them, define their priorities and states.
Multithreading Part I: Multithreading and Multitasking
In this and a series of articles that would follow, we would learn about threads and how to write multi-threaded programs in C#.
Multithreading Part 3: Thread Synchronization
The .NET framework provides a number of classes and data types that you can use to control the access to shared resources. Thread synchronization refers to the act of shielding against multithreading issues such as data- races, deadlocks and starvation.
Multithreading Part 4: The ThreadPool, Timer Classes and Asynchronous Programming
In this article, I would discuss few more .NET classes and how and what role do they play a role in building multithreading applications.
Lengthy Operations on Single Thread in .NET Applications
In this article I discuss how the lenghty operations can be handled in a .NET application. I also discuss how the stack trace can be examined to find any specific methods.
Recipe to Implement Threads Quick n Easy in C#
In this tutorial type article, author shows how to write threading applications quick and easy in C#.
Consumer/Producer Multithreaded Program
This is simple multi-threading program that adds and removes elements in an ArrayList. Producer button will creates a producer thread that adds elements in to the ArrayList. The maximum number of elements can be added to this ArrayList are 100 elements and the producer thread has to wait until the consumer thread/threads (creates by pressing consumer button) removes elements from the ArrayList. Then Producer thread starts to add more elements to the ArrayList.
Basic concepts of Threading: Part II
In this article a brief description about System.Threading Namespace, Classes and Interfaces provided that enables multithreading programming.
Basic concepts of Threading: Part I
In this article, we will look at the basic concepts of threading in C# and .NET.
Interlocking Threads
Recently, I was building multi-threaded applications and noticed some intermittent data inconsistency. Soon, I found the culprit was locking mechanism. After doing some research, I gathered the following information and as usual decide to share with you guys.
Multithreaded XML Document for Read/Write Access
This article describes a process for using a ThreadPool within a windows service that monitors other services. It also shows how to allow multithreaded read/write access to an XmlDocument, that acts as persistent storage, using a Mutex.
Handling the Queuing of Messages in a Multithreaded Program
In the financial world you have to deal with messages being spewed at you in large quantities at a rapid rate. For example stock quotes, market data, and orders come flying at you through some sort of wire and you as a programmer have to handle them in a way that doesn’t overwhelm you or the machine.
Thread Safe Collections ArrayList and Queue
The attached project provides a dll containing a wrapper around the non-thread safe ArrayList and Queue classes. The wrapper implements the most common functions of this collection elements.
Drawing Shapes using Threading
This is simple multi-threading program that draws circles and rectangles. Each shape is handle by individual thread that created every time you press start button. Using sleep method on each thread we can change the speed of each shape.
Synchronized Threading in .NET
Threads are a powerful abstraction for allowing parallelized operations: graphical updates can happen while another thread is performing computations, two threads can handle two simultaneous network requests from a single process, and the list goes on. Since threads are pretty simple to understand, conceptually, but, practically, they are a cause for programmatic headaches, I decided to write this program to describe how to make use of threads.
Using the ThreadPool to Run Animated Gifs in C# and .NET
In this article we will discuss the use of the ThreadPool class in conjunction with the ImageAnimator class to run 3 animated gifs in separate threads.
Changing the default limit of 25 threads of ThreadPool Class
The Threadpool is useful for managing threads that are usually in a wait state and that take only a short amount of time to do their work. If still you would like to change the default limit of 25 threads then here you go.
