// Parallel Go – an Introduction to Channels and Lightweight Threads

The Go programming language – a carefully designed language putting productivity and safety first – is an interesting option for writing concurrent applications. Featuring a comprehensive standard library, Go enables productive implementation of applications scaling from embedded single-core devices to data centers.

This talk will introduce you to Go's concurrent features and will demonstrate their effective use and respective cost on x86 and ARM architectures.
