Before we begin it would help to review a key difference in Asynchronous and Parallel programming. This book is designed to help people new to parallel computing “think parallel”. It uses design patterns to present the essence of how experts think about parallel programming. So far we have only seen parallel CPU-bound programming with F#. One key thing about F# async programming is that you can use it for both CPU and I/O computations. This leads to extended use of Asynchronous and Parallel programming patterns and techniques. As you all know .Net framework provides the "Parallel Extensions for .Net". Several times recently, folks have asked how to use tasks to implement the APM pattern, otherwise known as the Asynchronous Programming Model pattern, or the IAsyncResult pattern, or the Begin/End pattern. I recently attended ParaPLOP, co-located with ChilliPLOP, in Carefree (near Phoenix), a workshop that aims at gathering parallel programming patterns and creating a universal pattern language for parallel programming. Parallel programming is one of the most important subjects that a modern developer should be familiar with.
