Concurrent data structure

In computer science, a concurrent data structure (also called shared data structure) is a data structure designed for access and modification by multiple computing threads (or processes or nodes) on a computer, for example concurrent queues, concurrent stacks etc. The concurrent data structure is typically considered to reside in an abstract storage environment known as shared memory, which may be physically implemented as either a tightly coupled or a distributed collection of storage modules.
