Answer / uma
synchronized means that in a multiple threaded
environment,a synchronized object does not let two threads
access the same time.this means that one thread cant be
reading while another updates it.the second thread will
instead wait until the first is done.the overhead is
speed,but the advantage is guaranteed consistency of data..

Synchronization is a process of accessing a shared resource in a multithreaded environment by one thread at a time.
Generally in Multithreaded applications all the threads start execution at a time(i.e doing multiple task at a time) . In this situation we need a piece of code to used by one thread at a time then we need to use Synchronization.
When a thread access a Synchronized code it establishes lock with that code and all the other threads will be there in waiting state. The Lock will be released once the thread as finished it task and other thread waiting will acquire the lock.
