<title>Define a Semaphore</title>

<para>Taskflow provides a mechanism, <ref refid="classtf_1_1Semaphore" kindref="compound">tf::Semaphore</ref>, for you to limit the maximum concurrency in a section of tasks. You can let a task acquire/release one or multiple semaphores before/after executing its work. A task can acquire and release a semaphore, or just acquire or just release it. A <ref refid="classtf_1_1Semaphore" kindref="compound">tf::Semaphore</ref> object starts with an initial count. As long as that count is above 0, tasks can acquire the semaphore and do their work. If the count is 0 or less, a task trying to acquire the semaphore will not run but goes to a waiting list of that semaphore. When the semaphore is released by another task, it reschedules all tasks on that waiting list.</para>

<para>The above example creates 1000 tasks with no dependencies between them. Each task increments <computeroutput>counter</computeroutput> by one. Since this increment operation is protected by the semaphore initialized with a count of <computeroutput>1</computeroutput>, no multiple workers will run this operation at the same time. In other words, the semaphore limits the parallelism of the 1000 tasks to 1.</para>
|
|
<para><simplesect kind="attention"><para>It is your responsibility to ensure the semaphore stays alive during the execution of tasks that acquire and release it. The executor and taskflow do not manage lifetime of any semaphores.</para>
|
|
</simplesect>
|
|
We can create a semaphore with a different count value, such as 3, to limit the parallelism of independent tasks to 3.</para>

<para><ref refid="classtf_1_1Semaphore" kindref="compound">tf::Semaphore</ref> is also useful for limiting the maximum concurrency across multiple task groups. For instance, you can have one task acquire a semaphore and have another task release that semaphore to impose concurrency on different task groups. The following example serializes the execution of five pairs of tasks using a semaphore rather than explicit dependencies.</para>

<para>Without semaphores, each pair of tasks, e.g., <computeroutput>from-0 -> to-0</computeroutput>, will run independently and concurrently. However, the program forces each <computeroutput>from</computeroutput> task to acquire the semaphore before running its work and not to release it until its paired <computeroutput>to</computeroutput> task is done. This constraint forces each pair of tasks to run sequentially, while the order of which pair runs first is up to the scheduler.</para>
