WEBVTT 00:00.260 --> 00:00.980 Hello, guys. 00:00.980 --> 00:02.090 Welcome to this course. 00:02.090 --> 00:05.030 So let's quickly go through the agenda of this course. 00:05.030 --> 00:07.130 So this course is divided into two parts. 00:07.130 --> 00:12.230 The first part is the general Multithreading and the second part we will cover thread synchronization. 00:12.320 --> 00:17.930 So the approximate length of this course is approximately 12 hours In general Multithreading section, 00:17.930 --> 00:21.470 we will going to cover thread creation and destruction. 00:21.470 --> 00:26.090 We will discuss the difference between Multithreading concurrency parallelism. 00:26.090 --> 00:31.760 We will discuss what are joinable detached threads and we will also discuss race conditions and how 00:31.760 --> 00:33.380 to handle race conditions. 00:33.380 --> 00:38.660 Then we will discuss the important aspects of the Multithreading is the thread cancellation and how 00:38.660 --> 00:40.610 to create listener threads. 00:40.640 --> 00:44.540 We will also discuss how threads can process and return results. 00:44.540 --> 00:49.820 And finally, in general Multithreading section, we will discuss how different threads in the same 00:49.820 --> 00:52.730 process can actually exchange data with each other. 00:52.730 --> 00:58.640 And we will discuss how as a developer you can take a control to pause and resume the threads at your 00:58.640 --> 01:04.440 will in the thread synchronization portion, we will going to cover critical section Mutexes Locks and 01:04.440 --> 01:05.250 deadlocks. 01:05.250 --> 01:07.890 We will discuss in detail what is condition variable? 01:07.920 --> 01:10.200 How does it differ from mutex? 01:10.230 --> 01:17.100 We will discuss weight and signal system call and how to use broadcast system call right using these 01:17.100 --> 01:18.510 condition variable and mutexes. 01:18.510 --> 01:23.640 We will going to do certain standard problems such as producer, consumer problem dining philosopher 01:23.640 --> 01:28.470 problem and we will going to discuss what is a spurious wakeups, which is a fundamental problem to 01:28.500 --> 01:29.520 multithreading. 01:29.520 --> 01:35.790 And then finally we will going to discuss semaphores and what are zero one semaphores and we will discuss 01:35.790 --> 01:38.160 how you can implement your own semaphores. 01:38.160 --> 01:43.140 And finally, towards the end of this course we will going to discuss the thread management and by the 01:43.140 --> 01:49.350 end of this course we will be in a position to proceed to sequel or advanced version of this course, 01:49.350 --> 01:56.490 which is a Part B, and in that course we will going to discuss the advanced concepts in thread synchronization 01:56.490 --> 02:02.100 as well as it will also open up the doors for us to do asynchronous programming concepts, which is 02:02.100 --> 02:03.720 pretty much advanced concepts. 02:03.720 --> 02:09.240 And coming to the prerequisite, the prerequisite of this course require you to have C and C plus plus 02:09.240 --> 02:10.380 programming skills. 02:10.410 --> 02:13.560 Now the level of programming skills required is not an expert. 02:13.560 --> 02:20.280 Even if you are just better than basic or intermediate level, you are good to go and very basic knowledge 02:20.280 --> 02:24.600 of data structures is required because at certain places we will going to use link list. 02:24.600 --> 02:28.470 And this is purely a course which uses Linux machine. 02:28.470 --> 02:33.450 You can run any Linux distribution either natively or as a virtual machine. 02:33.600 --> 02:36.030 I would recommend that you use Ubuntu. 02:36.450 --> 02:42.290 So if you are using Windows to do this course, so you can also do so, but do it at your own risk. 02:42.300 --> 02:47.940 All my codes have been tested only on Linux machine and I have never tested them on the Windows machine. 02:48.120 --> 02:54.480 The compiler that we will going to use is GCC compiler and you must have a GitHub account because all 02:54.480 --> 02:56.340 my codes are shared on the GitHub. 02:56.340 --> 03:02.520 And if you have a GitHub account then it would be easy for you to navigate through my source code or 03:02.520 --> 03:04.050 get an access to it. 03:04.050 --> 03:10.110 And finally, you should have a zeal to think and learn to do not only this course but any course whatsoever. 03:10.590 --> 03:14.670 So after doing this course, you will be able to design Multithreading applications. 03:14.670 --> 03:21.180 You would be able to choose when to thread and when not to write, and you will be able to implement 03:21.180 --> 03:22.980 thread synchronization techniques. 03:22.980 --> 03:29.160 You will be able to apply concepts to not only a programming language such as C or C plus plus, but 03:29.160 --> 03:34.020 in fact, if tomorrow you happen to become Java programmer, Python programmer or C sharp programmer, 03:34.050 --> 03:37.920 the concepts that you will learn in this course can very well be applied there. 03:37.920 --> 03:38.580 Right? 03:38.580 --> 03:44.430 So though I will demonstrate all my codes in the C language, but the concepts, but the concepts are 03:44.430 --> 03:50.010 language agnostic and you can apply those concepts very well in any programming language in future. 03:50.010 --> 03:50.640 Right? 03:50.670 --> 03:55.200 Then after doing this course, you will be in a position to answer interview questions with confidence 03:55.200 --> 03:56.970 and you can drive the interviews. 03:57.000 --> 04:01.410 Needless to say, you will be writing a couple of codes in this course and therefore you will get an 04:01.410 --> 04:03.450 enhanced coding and development skills. 04:03.450 --> 04:07.500 This course will also help you to build resume and GitHub portfolio. 04:07.500 --> 04:13.710 And you can join our group, which is a telegram group on Practicals and you can visit our website to 04:13.710 --> 04:15.150 know more about us. 04:15.480 --> 04:21.900 You cannot work with instructors or other students and get the opportunity to get referrals or any advice 04:21.900 --> 04:26.220 regarding career or anything else by joining our telegram group. 04:26.220 --> 04:27.480 So best of luck guys. 04:27.480 --> 04:28.710 See you in the course.
