The emergence of these new language features and its API began in Java 7 with the Fork / Join framework. It
will continue in Java 8, at which point we will be able to to fully utilize the resources of our multicore processors, with a minimum of effort.

What are those new patterns ? What performance gains can we expect ? What are the new bugs that we'll surely meet ? One hour to respond specifically to these three questions, demystifying things, and most importantly, introducing new problems and solutions. An hour to understand how our habits of concurrent programming will have to evolve, and what concurrent programming will look like tomorrow.
