ASYNCHRONOUS ASSIST THREAD INITIATION

摘要

A method of data processing includes a processor of a data processing system executing a controlling thread of a program and detecting occurrence of a particular asynchronous event during execution of the controlling thread of the program. In response to occurrence of the particular asynchronous event during execution of the controlling thread of the program, the processor initiates execution of an assist thread of the program such that the processor simultaneously executes the assist thread and controlling thread of the program.
