Uses in Timing or Animation in Games and Simulation Many systems are in fact multi-threaded - you do not always see or need to be aware of the system threads working in the background Java has several systems threads for the Garbage Collector and for the AWT graphics system Using Java inbuilt thread facilities 159.235 Graphics * What is A Thread? Normally we think of our program as being a single thread of control The CPU architecture has: A program (compiled code) A program counter Program context - ie memory allocated, values in registers A multi-threaded program has a set of “virtual CPUs” Each has its own thread of control, linked to a separate program counter Threads generally share the program code and memory allocation of a single program (unlike eg full “processes”) 159.235 Graphics * Cooperating threads Several threads running the same program can usefully cooperate to help the user achieve an outcome eg managing the windows system or mouse and keyboard Think of threads as a way of conceptualising or managing a concurrent or parallel program that can effectively “do” several things at once 159.235 Graphics * Using Threads Needs careful planning in the general case Need to consider what each thread will do… How will they be initialised? How will they exchange information (eg shared variables) Threads libraries are available for common programming languages like C or C++ Java has a threads system integrated into the language Thread object or Runnable interface 159.235 Graphics * Java Threads The Java Virtual Machine (JVM has several system threads that help your program run Garbage Collector thread wakes up periodically and recovers memory no longer used by unreferenced objects AWT graphics thread looks after the various events that can occur ina
