Java.next Presentation #4: Concurrency

Programming concurrency is hard, but the Java.next languages can make things easier. In this talk (Part 4 of the Java.next series), I will demonstrate how to write concurrent applications in Clojure, Groovy, JRuby, and Scala.

Topics will include

  • calling the java.util.concurrent APIs
  • why locks are harmful
  • using immutable objects
  • Scala's actor model
  • Clojure's Software Transactional Memory and Agents
