threaded code
(redirected from Threading models)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
(programming)threaded code - A technique for implementing virtual machine interpreters, introduced by J.R. Bell in 1973, where each op-code in the virtual machine instruction set is the address of some (lower level) code to perform the required operation. This kind of virtual machine can be implemented efficiently in machine code on most processors by simply performing an indirect jump to the address which is the next instruction.

Many Forth implementations use threaded code and nowadays some use the term "threading" for almost any technique used to implement Forth's virtual machine.

the series addresses all aspects of COM including: COM design techniques, COM threading models and Interface Definition Language (IDL).
1 transport independence, * Real-time granularity and monitoring options, * Support for static and dynamic threading models, * Expanded scope for enhanced reject messages, and * Message flow control with an optional throttle plug-in.
It also offers aggressive internal threading features which manage sophisticated threading models to exploit multi-core and multiprocessor systems.
