  • More about Nonsequential and Distributed Programming with Go: Synchronization of Concurrent Processes: Communication - Cooperation - Competition


This book introduces nonsequential and distributed programming with Go, covering locks, semaphores, fairness, deadlocks, monitors, message passing, networks, exploration, depth and breadth first search, and leader selection. It uses classic examples to make learning easier, and the algorithms are formulated in the Go programming language. The 4th edition includes corrections, extensions, and adjustments for Go.

This comprehensive textbook delves into the realm of nonsequential and distributed programming with the versatile Go programming language. After a brief introduction to software engineering fundamentals and their implementation in Go, it seamlessly transitions into the world of nonsequential and distributed programming. The author presents essential concepts for the synchronization and communication of concurrent processes, encompassing locks, semaphores, fairness, deadlocks, monitors, local and network-wide message passing, networks as graphs, network exploration, distributed depth and breadth first search, and the selection of leaders in networks.

To facilitate a smooth understanding of these concepts, the author consistently employs familiar classic examples throughout the book. This approach makes learning more accessible and intuitive, as readers can compare the presented concepts with the language resources more readily. The algorithms are formulated in the Go programming language, offering a concise and expressive way to convey numerous synchronization concepts. Moreover, Go's simple syntax makes it accessible to readers with no prior programming knowledge, allowing them to grasp the basic principles with ease.

In the 4th edition of this textbook, designed specifically for computer science students, numerous errors have been corrected, additional extensions have been incorporated, and adjustments have been made to account for changes in Go. The book remains an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to explore the world of nonsequential and distributed programming with Go, providing a solid foundation for advanced study and practical applications.
