Multi-Paradigm Programming with Modern C++ - Synchronization with Atomics

The video tutorial explores the concept of data races in multithreaded programming, using a simple integer operation as an example. It introduces atomics as a solution to synchronization issues, highlighting the use of STD atomic in C-11. The tutorial further delves into atomic flags and the publication safety pattern, demonstrating their application in multithreaded environments. It also covers memory ordering, explaining different modes like sequential consistency and release-acquire, and discusses optimization techniques to enhance performance. The video concludes with a brief mention of mutexes as a topic for the next session.
