A Monitor defines a lock and condition variables for managing concurrent access to shared data. The monitor uses the lock to ensure that only a single thread inactive in the monitor code at any time.

A monitor allows only one thread to lock an object at once.

Use Windows explorer to configure a synchronization schedule for offline files. (Select Tools => Synchronize to start this process.) You can also access the same synchronization tool by selecting Start => Programs => Accessories => Synchronize.

When ever two or more threads are sharing same data for updating then unpredicted result will be there in the data.

For Example take a thread is depositing amount in Account Object and another thread is withdrawing amount from the same Account Object.

when ever both threads are executed simultaneously then unexpected result is stored in the balance of the  Account Object. 

The handheld device is used as a network device, which always connected to the data account of the user via redirector software. The software is installed on the BlackBerry Enterprise Server. The communication between the software, BE Server and the hand held device’s software is always a two-way street. BES immediately updates the mobile device or the email or the calendar account, whenever a change in email account occurs.

The push technology of BlackBerry keeps the device instantly in “synch” without any effort by the user. 

With respect to multithreading, synchronization is the capability to control the access of multiple threads to shared resources. Without synchronization, it is possible for one thread to modify a shared object while another thread is in the process of using or updating that object's value. This often leads to significant errors.

A situation, where several processes access and manipulate the same data concurrently and the outcome of the execution depends on the particular order in which the access takes place, is called race condition. To guard against the race condition we need to ensure that only one process at a time can be manipulating the same data. The technique we use for this is called process synchronization.
