Explore Project Loom's mission to revolutionize concurrent programming in Java through a 36-minute presentation by Ron Pressler and Alan Bateman. Dive into the concept of fibers as lightweight, efficient threads managed by the Java Virtual Machine, designed to replace traditional OS kernel threads. Learn how fibers aim to maintain the simplicity of thread abstraction while significantly improving performance and reducing resource consumption, particularly valuable in cloud computing environments. Discover the implementation of fibers using continuations in the JVM and gain insights into the project's current status, design challenges, and practical applications through a live demonstration. Gain a deeper understanding of how Project Loom is set to transform the way developers write, debug, profile, and maintain high-load concurrent applications in Java.
