Wirth's Law: Optimizing Software for Virtual Memory

KEY TAKEAWAYS Key Takeaways (Wirth's Law) Wirth's Law posits that software is getting slower more rapidly than hardware is becoming faster. The law emphasizes the importance of efficient software development and optimization to ensure optimal system performance. Factors contributing to the slowdown of software include increased feature complexity, inefficient coding practices, and the demand for more resource-intensive applications. Addressing Wirth's Law involves a focus o...

Introdution for Producer-ConsumerBasic outlineHow to implement in Java?SummaryIntrodution for Producer-Consumer

The Producer-Consumer problem is a classic example of a multi-process synchronization problem. The problem describes two processes, the producer and the consumer, who share a common, fixed-size buffer used as a queue. The producer generates data, puts it into the buffer, and starts again. At the same time, the consumer consumes the data (removes it from the buf...
