The [[.NET Framework]] also uses synchronization primitives.<ref>{{cite web|title=Overview of synchronization primitives|url=https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/threading/overview-of-synchronization-primitives|website=Microsoft Learn|publisher=Microsoft|access-date=10 November 2023}}</ref> "Synchronization is designed to be cooperative, demanding that every thread follow the synchronization mechanism before accessing protected resources for consistent results. Locking, signaling, lightweight synchronization types, spinwait and interlocked operations are mechanisms related to synchronization in .NET." <ref>{{cite web|title=Synchronization|last=Rouse|first=Margaret|url=https://www.techopedia.com/definition/13390/synchronization-dot-net|website=Techopedia|publisher=Techopedia|access-date=10 November 2023}}</ref>
 
Many programming languages support synchronization and entire specialized [[Synchronous programming language|languages]] have been written for [[Embedded software|embedded application]] development where strictly deterministic synchronization is paramount.
