Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider an application that uses CopyOnWriteArrayList to manage events in a UI. Given that the application constantly reads event listeners, propose a design that highlights the strengths of CopyOnWriteArrayList.

💡 Hint: Think about the balance of event read and write frequency.

Question 2

In a scenario where you need to maintain a list of user sessions in a web application, analyze whether using CopyOnWriteArrayList would be suitable. Consider scenarios with high session activity.

💡 Hint: Evaluate the modification frequency against read operations.
