It seems like you're interested in modernizing Grand Central Dispatch (GCD). While the provided context doesn't directly address GCD, it does cover several related topics from Apple's WWDC sessions that might be of interest, such as performance improvements in Swift and Xcode, which could indirectly relate to concurrency and parallelism improvements.
For instance, the session titled "Explore Swift performance" discusses various performance optimizations in Swift, including function calls, memory allocation, and generics, which are crucial for efficient concurrent programming. You might find the section on closures and generics particularly relevant, as these can be used in conjunction with GCD to manage asynchronous tasks more effectively.
Additionally, the session "What’s new in Xcode 16" highlights improvements in debugging and thread performance checking, which can be beneficial when working with GCD to ensure your concurrent code is running efficiently and without issues.
If you have specific questions about concurrency or GCD, I recommend exploring these sessions for insights into performance and debugging improvements that could aid in modernizing your use of GCD.
Deploy machine learning and AI models on-device with Core ML
Learn new ways to optimize speed and memory performance when you convert and run machine learning and AI models through Core ML. We’ll cover new options for model representations, performance insights, execution, and model stitching which can be used together to create compelling and private on-device experiences.
A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design
Learn the essential features and design philosophy of the Swift programming language. We’ll explore how to model data, handle errors, use protocols, write concurrent code, and more while building up a Swift package that has a library, an HTTP server, and a command line client. Whether you’re just beginning your Swift journey or have been with us from the start, this talk will help you get the most out of the language.
What’s new in Swift
Join us for an update on Swift. We’ll briefly go through a history of Swift over the past decade, and show you how the community has grown through workgroups, expanded the package ecosystem, and increased platform support. We’ll introduce you to a new language mode that achieves data-race safety by default, and a language subset that lets you run Swift on highly constrained systems. We’ll also explore some language updates including noncopyable types, typed throws, and improved C++ interoperability.
