TPL Dataflow by Example: Dataflow and Reactive Programming in .Net

By Matt Carkci

The TPL Dataflow Library allows you to design asynchronous Actor and Dataflow based applications. While similar to Microsoft's Reactive Extensions, it goes far beyond what is offered by Rx with a more generalized abstraction to build all types of stream based applications. It does not force you to use IObservable and LINQ, data is simply a stream. Messages transmit data from one block to another over links. Blocks handle the details of multithreading and execute anytime they receive data. All you have to think about is programming the blocks to do what you want. Focus on the problem domain not asynchronous details. Downloadable code examples are used throughout the book to explain the library with a hands-on approach (http: //DataflowBook.com).
