A semaphore with a negative value implies that a thread must wait for the completion of some event.</p> <p>The mechanism by which a thread waits on a semaphore is part of the overall management of thread scheduling.</p> <p>For general applications, it is not common to explicitly create a semaphore; most applications are interested in making asynchronous requests to service providers.
