Concurrency is a computer science concept referring to a program's ability to execute multiple tasks or processes in overlapping time periods, whether through true parallelism on multiple cores or interleaved execution on a single core. Software engineers use concurrency skills to write efficient, responsive applications while managing challenges like race conditions, deadlocks, and shared-state synchronization.
