You've probably never accessed a file like this before. (Async IO example) // Asynchronous input and output is cool, but rarely used. In this video, I'll show you how to split-phase your file reads so you can get other things done in the meantime. This can be a useful alternative to threads, for those of you trying to squeeze every last bit of performance out of your programs.

Welcome! I post videos that help you learn to program and become a more confident software developer. I cover beginner-to-advanced systems topics ranging from network programming, threads, processes, operating systems, embedded systems and others. My goal is to help you get under-the-hood and better understand how computers work and how you can use them to become stronger students and more capable professional developers.


About me: I'm a computer scientist, electrical engineer, researcher, and teacher. I specialize in embedded systems, mobile computing, sensor networks, and the Internet of Things. I teach systems and networking courses at Clemson University, where I also lead the PERSIST research lab.
