Programming with Structured Concurrency
Saturday - May 4 2:45 PM EDT - BALLROOM
Dividing a large problem into subproblems that are scheduled to run on different threads is an often used solution. We've used executors and fork join pool for such problems in the past. These solutions, in spite of being very powerful, has significant limitations.
In this presentation we will start with those solutions, discuss the issues, and learn how structured concurrency, introduced in Java 21, can help solve such problems more effectively and elegantly.
