Pro Asynchronous Programming with .NET

In the modern world, users expect more and more from their applications and devices, and multi-core hardware has the potential to provide it. But it takes carefully crafted code to turn that potential into responsive, scalable applications.

With Pro Asynchronous Programming with .NET you will:

• Meet the underlying model for asynchrony on Windows—threads.
• Learn how to perform long blocking operations away from your UI thread to keep your UI responsive, then weave the results back in as seamlessly as possible.
• Master the async/await model of asynchrony in .NET, which makes asynchronous programming simpler and more achievable than ever before.
• Solve common problems in parallel programming with modern async techniques.
• Get under the hood of your asynchronous code with debugging techniques and insights from Visual Studio and beyond.
