Asynchronous Pattern Overview

Applications that perform many tasks simultaneously, yet remain responsive to user interaction, often require a design that uses multiple threads. The System.Threading namespace provides all the tools necessary to create high-performance multithreaded applications, but using these tools effectively requires significant experience with multithreaded software engineering. For relatively simple multithreaded applications, the BackgroundWorker component provides a straightforward solution. For more sophisticated asynchronous applications, consider implementing a class that adheres to the Event-based Asynchronous Pattern. More Details..
