Asynchronous vs Synchronous
Synchronous processing is the design of computing tasks to be dependent in some way. Synchronous tasks may need to coordinate activities if they run at the same time. Alternatively, one task may need to be completed before the other can run. In many cases, architects and programmers prefer to organize work into asynchronous tasks where possible. Synchronous tasks have a tendency to get complex, especially when they execute at the same time in a coordinated fashion.Overview: Asynchronous Processing | ||
