Get results faster with Java multithreading

Code parallelization is the process of modifying a simulation program so that it can take advantage of multiple computational cores to obtain results faster. One method is to distribute the workload locally in the form of computational threads. Java makes it easy to add multithreading to your code. Here we show you how to implement a "poor-man's" method, in which individual cases run serially, but multiple cases are launched concurrently. (Jun 25 2011)
