If you had your own jet plane, would you drive it to the grocery store, or fly it on a tour around the world? Today every computer and phone comes with immense computing power and multiple cores that allow for full parallelism. In this course you will go on a journey to learn all the fundamental tools you need to become a confident and successful multithreaded application developer. Using multithreading and concurrency we will learn to get the most out of our computer to truly make it fly!

Teaching Philosophy
The course is designed to teach you "how to fish". Instead of memorizing classes, libraries or Java APIs, we will learn the fundamentals of multithreaded programming, starting from the complete basics, all the way to the very advanced topics in multithreading.
All lectures include the right theory and are accompanied by practical examples from relevant fields such as:
User Interface applications
Image Processing
Web Applications
Computational programs
And others
It's a practical course that is meant to save you time. Instead of filling hours of material, I hand picked the most important topics based on my practical experience.
Target Student for this Course
Students who already have some experience and basic knowledge in programming in Java.
Students who want to acquire multithreaded, parallel programming and concurrency skills, in a short period of time.
Students who are interested in performance optimizations and getting good foundation in the above mentioned topics.
Students who want to take their career to the next level. Whether you are a
Newly graduate and you're looking to land a dream job.
A professional engineer who wants to become a better programmer and improve your skillset.
A freelancer who wants to develop his/her own project and is looking to learn how to write efficient multithreaded code.
Short Bio
My passion towards multithreading and concurrency started in college where I worked on a highly scalable, distributed, B+ Tree research project, sponsored by IBM.
Later I worked as a Computer Architecture Engineer at Intel Corporation and as a Software Engineer in other companies where I developed many applications and features involving efficient and optimized multithreaded code to deliver real time video, audio and data - in education, healthcare, augmented reality and Ad Tech.
Today I am a Principal Software Engineer and Software Architect. Training and mentoring engineers on all levels is both my job and my passion.
We will learn
Operating Systems fundamentals and motivation for multithreading and concurrency.
The basics of multithreading - how to create threads in Java as well as communicate between threads in Java.
Performance considerations and design patterns of multithreaded and parallel applications. Optimizing for latency or throughput.
Data sharing between threads in Java. All the pitfalls and challenges as well as the solutions and best practices.
Advanced lock-free algorithms and data structures for increased responsiveness and performance.
By the End of the Course
You will be able to
Write correct, responsive, and performant multithreaded applications in Java, for any purpose and scale.
Apply best practices to architect multithreaded applications, algorithms and libraries.
Become knowledgable in concurrency & parallel programming, which will help you in job interviews, in your daily work as an engineer, as well as in your personal projects.

About the Author: Udemy
Udemy is the largest open marketplace for online courses on the internet. Founded in 2010 by Eren Bali, Oktay Caglar, and Gagan Biyani and headquartered in San Francisco, the company went public on the Nasdaq in 2021 under the ticker UDMY. The platform hosts well over two hundred thousand courses across software development, IT and cloud, data science, design, business, marketing, and creative skills, taught by tens of thousands of independent instructors. Roughly seventy million learners use it worldwide, and the corporate arm — Udemy Business — supplies a curated subset of that catalog to enterprise customers.
Because Udemy is a marketplace rather than a single editorial publisher, the catalog is uneven by design. The strongest material lives in the long-form, project-based courses authored by working engineers — full-stack JavaScript, React, Node.js, Python data science, AWS, Docker and Kubernetes, mobile development with Flutter and React Native, and cloud certification preparation. The CourseFlix listing under this source is the slice of that catalog that has been mirrored here for offline-friendly viewing, organized by topic and updated as new releases land. Pricing on Udemy itself swings dramatically with the site's near-permanent sales, which is why the platform is best treated as a deep reference catalog: pick instructors with strong reviews and a track record of updating their material rather than buying on the headline price alone.
