Concurrency involves running multiple tasks simultaneously. Java has been designed from the start support multi threading. However, using Java concurrency comes at a price of vigilance, as effects of multiple threads can be essentially non- deterministic. This situation can lead to hard to reproduce bugs, unless the foundations of Java threading are well understood. Even so, multithreading can have great advantages in the areas of improved application design and performance.
This talk will introduce concurrency through example code, starting with basic features introduced in Java 1.0 through the latest major changes in JDK 1.5 We will also look at implementing concurrent processing within a web framework and a simulation application.
About the Speaker:
David Moskowitz is as independent consultant specializing in high performing Java application development. His current interests include application framework architecture using Spring and Hibernate, and Java and XSL performance tuning and profiling.
David is the founder and current chairman of the Sarasota Java User group.

Chris Price discusses the critical shift from catching bugs at runtime to identifying them during the build process. He explains how leveraging modern programming language features such as static typing in dynamic languages, null safety, immutable data structures, and exhaustive pattern matching can significantly enhance code maintainability and prevent expensive production issues.
By Chris PriceResilience helps individuals and organizations respond to challenges. Personal resilience is built through adapting, technical resilience by mastering a variety of tools, and organizational resilience through flexibility and strong networks. In fast-changing software industries, recognizing tech shifts and fostering learning, flexibility, and collaboration, enhances resilience.
By Ben LindersStyrolite is an open-source, low-level container runtime to address security and usability issues in Linux containerization. Developed by Edera, Styrolite differentiates itself by offering a programmatic API that enables developers to create and manage containers in a controlled and secure manner.
By Aditya KulkarniCloudflare has launched a managed service for using retrieval-augmented generation in LLM-based systems. Now in beta, CloudFlare AutoRAG aims to make it easier for developers to build pipelines that integrate rich context data into LLMs.
By Sergio De SimoneKennedy Torkura discusses cloud attack emulation as a critical strategy for senior software developers and architects. He explains adopting the attacker's perspective, moving beyond passive assessments to active validation, and the principles of threat-informed defense to enhance cloud security posture. Learn about detection limitations and the necessity of continuous testing.
