Java Thread & Multithreading
- 2. • In computer science, a thread of execution is the smallest sequence of programmed instructions that can be managed independently by a scheduler (typically as part of an operating system).
- 3. • multithreaded programming language which means we can develop multithreaded program using Java. A multithreaded program contains two or more parts that can run concurrently and each part can handle different task at the same time making optimal use of the available resources specially when your computer has multiple CPUs.
- 4. • Multithreading is the ability of a program or an operating system process to manage its use by more than one user at a time and to even manage multiple requests by the same user without having to have multiple copies of the programming running in the computer. 235
- 5. Multi-threaded applications • Responsiveness: Multi-threading has the ability for an application to remain responsive to input. In a single- threaded program, if the main execution thread blocks on a long-running task, the entire application can appear to freeze. By moving such long-running tasks to a worker thread that runs concurrently with the main execution thread, it is possible for the application to remain responsive to user input while executing tasks in the background. On the other hand, in most cases multithreading is not the only way to keep a program responsive, with non-blocking I/O and/or Unix signals being available for gaining similar results
- 6. • Faster Execution: This advantage of a multithreaded program allows it to operate faster on computer systems that have multiple or multi-core CPUs, or across a cluster of machines, because the threads of the program naturally lend themselves to truly concurrent execution.
- 7. • Less Resource Intensive: Using threads, an application can serve multiple clients concurrently using less resource than it would need when using multiple process copies of itself. For example, the Apache HTTP server, which uses a pool of listener and server threads for listening to incoming requests and processing these
- 8. • . Better System Utilization: Multi-threaded applications can also utilize the system better. For example, a file-system using multiple threads can achieve higher throughput and lower latency since data in faster mediums like the cache can be delivered earlier while waiting for a slower medium to retrieve the data.
- 9. • Simplified Sharing and Communication: Unlike processes, which require message passing or shared memory to perform inter- process communication, communication between threads is very simple. Threads automatically share the data, code and files and so, communication is vastly simplified.
- 10. • Parallelization: Applications looking to utilize multi-core and multi-CPU systems can use multi- threading to split data and tasks into parallel sub- tasks and let the underlying architecture manage how the threads run, either concurrently on a single core or in parallel on multiple cores. GPU computing environments like CUDA and OpenCL use the multi-threading model where dozens to hundreds of threads run in parallel on a large number of cores.
- 11. • Multi-threading has the following drawbacks: • Synchronization: Since threads share the same address space, the programmer must be careful to avoid race conditions and other non-intuitive behaviors. In order for data to be correctly manipulated, threads will often need to rendezvous in time in order to process the data in the correct order. Threads may also require mutually exclusive operations (often implemented using semaphores) in order to prevent common data from being simultaneously modified or read while in the process of being modified. Careless use of such primitives can lead to deadlocks. • Thread crashes Process: An illegal operation performed by a thread crashes the entire process and so, one misbehaving thread can disrupt the processing of all the other threads in the application.

- 16. Two ways for Thread Creation
- 17. Implementing thread using Runnable interface • public class thread1 implements Runnable{ • @Override • public void run() • { • System.out.println("hello world"); • } • public static void main(String args[]) { • //(new Thread(new hello_thread())).start(); • Thread t=new Thread(new thread1()); • t.start(); • • } • }
- 19. Creating thread using Extending Thread class • public class thread2 extends Thread{ • public void run() • { • System.out.println("helloworld"); • } • public static void main(String[] args) • { • thread2 t=new thread2(); • t.start(); • } • • }
- 21. • Can we start a thread twice? • No. After staring a thread, it can never be started again. If you does so, an IllegalThreadStateException is thrown.
