并发=两个队列和一台咖啡机。

并行=两个队列和两个咖啡机。

从处理器的角度来看，它可以用这张图片来描述

我在一些博客上找到了这个内容。认为它是有用的和相关的。

并发性和并行性不是一回事。两个任务T1和T2是并发的，如果这两个任务的执行顺序不是预先确定的，

T1可以在T2之前执行和完成， T2可以在T1之前执行和完成， T1和T2可以在同一个时间实例中同时执行(并行性)， T1和T2可以交替执行， .．. 如果操作系统安排两个并发线程在一个单核非smt非cmp处理器上运行，您可能会得到并发性而不是并行性。并行在多核、多处理器或分布式系统上是可能的。

并发性通常被认为是程序的一种属性，是一个比并行性更普遍的概念。

传统的任务调度可以是串行、并行或并发的。

Serial: tasks must be executed one after the other in a known tricked order or it will not work. Easy enough. Parallel: tasks must be executed at the same time or it will not work. Any failure of any of the tasks - functionally or in time - will result in total system failure. All tasks must have a common reliable sense of time. Try to avoid this or we will have tears by tea time. Concurrent: we do not care. We are not careless, though: we have analysed it and it doesn't matter; we can therefore execute any task using any available facility at any time. Happy days.

通常，在已知事件发生时，可用的调度会发生变化，我们称之为状态变化。

人们通常认为这是关于软件的，但实际上这是一种早于计算机的系统设计概念;软件系统的吸收速度有点慢，甚至很少有软件语言试图解决这个问题。如果你感兴趣，你可以试着查一下transputer language occam。

简而言之，系统设计解决以下问题:

动词——你在做什么(操作或算法) 名词——对(数据或接口)进行操作的对象 启动时，进度、状态改变 是串行、并行还是并发 地点——一旦你知道事情发生的时间，你就能说出事情可能发生的地点，而不是之前。 为什么，这是正确的方法吗?还有别的办法吗，更重要的是，更好的办法?如果你不做会怎么样?

祝你好运。

Concurrent programming regards operations that appear to overlap and is primarily concerned with the complexity that arises due to non-deterministic control flow. The quantitative costs associated with concurrent programs are typically both throughput and latency. Concurrent programs are often IO bound but not always, e.g. concurrent garbage collectors are entirely on-CPU. The pedagogical example of a concurrent program is a web crawler. This program initiates requests for web pages and accepts the responses concurrently as the results of the downloads become available, accumulating a set of pages that have already been visited. Control flow is non-deterministic because the responses are not necessarily received in the same order each time the program is run. This characteristic can make it very hard to debug concurrent programs. Some applications are fundamentally concurrent, e.g. web servers must handle client connections concurrently. Erlang, F# asynchronous workflows and Scala's Akka library are perhaps the most promising approaches to highly concurrent programming.

Multicore programming is a special case of parallel programming. Parallel programming concerns operations that are overlapped for the specific goal of improving throughput. The difficulties of concurrent programming are evaded by making control flow deterministic. Typically, programs spawn sets of child tasks that run in parallel and the parent task only continues once every subtask has finished. This makes parallel programs much easier to debug than concurrent programs. The hard part of parallel programming is performance optimization with respect to issues such as granularity and communication. The latter is still an issue in the context of multicores because there is a considerable cost associated with transferring data from one cache to another. Dense matrix-matrix multiply is a pedagogical example of parallel programming and it can be solved efficiently by using Straasen's divide-and-conquer algorithm and attacking the sub-problems in parallel. Cilk is perhaps the most promising approach for high-performance parallel programming on multicores and it has been adopted in both Intel's Threaded Building Blocks and Microsoft's Task Parallel Library (in .NET 4).

并发性提供了一种构建解决方案的方法，以解决可能(但不一定)可并行的问题， 并发性是关于结构，并行性是关于执行。
