Abstract

Učinkovito iskorištavanje modernog računalnog hardvera zahtijeva pisanje sigurnog softvera visoke razine konkurentnosti. Konkurentnost i paralelizam značajno povećavaju rizike
vezane za ispravno upravljanje memorije, izazov koji je smatran jednim od najvećih problema današnjih sistemskih programskih jezika. Ovaj rad fokusiran je na Rust, moderni sistemski programski jezik koji, uvođenjem inovativnog koncepta vlasništva podataka, nastoji
učiniti konkurentno programiranje sigurnim, bez žrtvovanja performansi. Istraženi su interni mehanizmi i idiomatske programske primitive za pisanje konkurentnog softvera, te je
njihovom kombinacijom razvijen funkcionalni primjer konkurentne aplikacije, s ciljem pre-
gleda Rust-ovih mogućnosti i performansi u odnosu na programski jezik Go, često smatranim
najboljom opcijom u tom području.

Abstract (english)

In order to utilize modern hardware, there is an ever greater need for safe, efficient,
highly-concurrent software. In general, this greatly increases the risks associated with proper
memory management, as the arguably most serious issue affecting systems programming
languages is exacerbated by multi-threaded and multi-core environments. This thesis fo-
cuses on Rust, a modern systems programming language, which introduces novel concepts
in an effort to make writing concurrent code safe, without sacrificing performance. Inter-
nal mechanisms and idiomatic concurrency primitives are explored and compared, and then
combined into a real-world example of a concurrent application, so that Rust’s capabilities
can be properly and objectively compared with those of Go, a language which, for the last
decade, is widely considered to be the best option when it comes to designing concurrent
software.
