==Language support==

Task parallelism can be supported in general-purposespurpose languages by either built-in facilities or libraries. Notable examples include:

* Ada: Tasks (built-in)

* C++ (Intel): [[Threading Building Blocks]]

* C++ (Intel): [[Cilk Plus]]

* C++ (Open Source/Apache 2.0): [[RaftLib]]

* C, C++, Objective-C, Swift (Apple): [[Grand Central Dispatch]]

* D: [[Task (computing)|tasks]] and [[Fiber (computer science)|fibers]]

* Delphi (System.Threading.TParallel)

* Go: [[goroutine]]s

* Java: [[Java concurrency]]

* .NET: [[Task Parallel Library]]

* Delphi (System.Threading.TParallel)

Examples of fine-grained task-parallel languages can be found in the realm of [[Hardware Description Language]]s like [[Verilog]] and [[VHDL]].
