Gesture-based multi-threaded programming interface: A prototype

Software programming for concurrent execution is not a simple task. The main issue related to this work is the lack of visibility of the multiple and parallel execution over the threads. Multi-core processor technology is a reality nowadays, and the only way to use modern hardware at its full capacity lies in the use of concurrent software. In this paper, a new 3D framework is presented, based on hand gestures that manipulate multiple threads of execution and deal with the visibility issues, using a 3D programming environment, including a set of experiments to evaluate the methodology’s performance.
