Concurrent object-oriented programming is a programming paradigm which combines object-oriented programming (OOP) together with concurrency, in which many computations are executing simultaneously. While numerous programming languages, such as Java, combine OOP with concurrency mechanisms like threads, the phrase "concurrent object-oriented programming" primarily refers to systems where objects themselves are a concurrency primitive, such as when objects are combined with the actor model.
