Synchronization primitives in multithreaded programming help solve the following tasks:

• Mutual exclusion (mutex): prevent multiple threads from accessing shared resources simultaneously, avoiding race conditions.

• Semaphores: limit the number of threads performing certain operations or using resources at the same time.

• Events and condition variables: allow threads to wait for certain conditions or signals from other threads.

• Barriers: synchronize groups of threads, forcing them to wait for each other before continuing.

For example, in iOS, DispatchSemaphore and NSLock are frequently used for synchronization, managing access to shared data and coordinating threads, which prevents errors and increases application stability.
