The most popular link for Android answers is AsyncTask. It makes sense, one of the biggest complaint about Android is that it isn't always perfectly smooth and people notice the jerkiness in the UI. I would say a large majority of the time it is because an Android app developer is running slow code on the UI thread instead of doing it correctly.

Interesting in c# the second most popular link is for the BackgroundWorker class, not entirely the same use case but i guess similar motivations. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.componentmode...
