Do you mean how would you handle initialising the singleton instance? There are a few methods to do this, for example double-check locking or using Lazy<>
- Jon Skeet's written an article about them here:

As for state inside the singleton itself you should consider using Interlocked
where possible if you're writing shared primitive values:

Consider using thread-safe collections:

And in other instances where state is mutated by one or more threads consider implementing lock
s where appropriate.
