Fine-grained Synchronization

Fine-Grained Synchronization is a synchronization strategy in parallel computing that belongs to the class of concurrency control methods, distinguished by its use of multiple fine-grained locks to protect individual data elements or small subsets of a data structure, thereby enabling higher degrees of parallelism and reduced contention compared to coarse-grained alternatives.
