Chapter 6. Using Concurrent Collections
In this chapter, we will look through the different data structures for concurrent programming included in the .NET Framework base class library. You will learn the following recipes:
- Using
ConcurrentDictionary
- Implementing asynchronous processing using
ConcurrentQueue
- Changing the asynchronous processing order with
ConcurrentStack
- Creating a scalable crawler with
ConcurrentBag
- Generalizing asynchronous processing with
BlockingCollection
