Threading
The FCL provides rich support for building multithreaded applications, including thread and thread-pool management, thread-synchronization mechanisms, such as monitors, mutexes, events, reader/writer locks, etc., and access to such underlying platform features as I/O completion ports and system timers (see Chapter 16).
For more information, see the following namespaces:
System.Threading System.Timers
Important related types in other namespaces include System.Thread
and System.ThreadStaticAttribute
