Concurrency is when computer science and the system works together. Recovery is taking the time to heal.

The big topics hot topics right now are artificial intelligence and parallelism/concurrency.

Concurrency is multiple things happening at the same time. Within a single application this is usually represented by multiple threads or processes running, and can provide complications such as "race conditions" if not engineered properly.

Historically the most common case for concurrency is separating the user interface from background processing that may take some time, however, with the popularization of multiple processors, it now is used almost as frequently to break tasks into smaller pieces and process them simultaneously for faster total processing.
