Java Multithreading and Parallel Programming Masterclass - Sleeping Barber Problem

The video tutorial discusses the barbershop problem, a classic synchronization problem in multithreading. It explains the problem's setup, where a barber and customers interact in a barbershop with limited waiting room seats. The tutorial covers the implementation of the problem using Java, focusing on creating threads for the barber and customers, and using locks and semaphores to manage synchronization and communication between them. The video also demonstrates running the program and suggests enhancements, emphasizing the importance of understanding these concepts for multithreading projects.
