This introductory seminar offers a primer on forking, threading, multiprocessing, and the asyncio module in Python. Participants will be guided through the basics of each concurrent programming technique, learning how they contribute to efficiency and performance optimization. Through simplified explanations and practical examples, attendees will gain a foundational understanding of these concepts, setting the stage for further exploration into concurrent programming in Python.

Participation requirements: Some experience with Python or attendance in one of our PIER Python workshops. Without sufficient programming knowledge, participation is not recommended.

This workshop is free of charge for registered members of the PIER Helmholtz Graduate School and its cooperation partners on Bahrenfeld campus in the PIER Education Platform.
