Java Concurrency: Multithreading and Concurrency in Java: Concurrency & the Producer-Consumer Problem Overview/Description Expected Duration Lesson Objectives Course Number Expertise Level Overview/Description The Producer-Consumer problem is a common issue to address when we have concurrent producer and consumer threads working with a bounded buffer. Solving this problem covers a variety of synchronization mechanisms in Java, and this course covers the implementation of synchronization blocks, locks, Condition objects, and Java's built-in data structures.

Lesson Objectives Java Concurrency: Multithreading and Concurrency in Java: Concurrency & the Producer-Consumer Problem
discover the key concepts covered in this course
define a producer task that can run concurrently with a consumer using a shared queue
develop a consumer task that works with a concurrent producer through a shared buffer
recognize the behavior of producer and consumer threads when working with a shared bounded buffer
use a ReentrantLock to access the shared queue for the Producer-Consumer problem
recognize the role of conditions in enabling different threads to wait on different conditions on the same object
verify the validity of a solution to the Producer-Consumer problem with multiple producer and consumer threads
implement a solution to the Producer-Consumer problem using Java's built-in ArrayBlockingQueue
