i am not completely sure, but does this make sense?

if you want to access the array consitently, you have to synchronize
multiple accesses.

int[10] a;
a[0] = a[0] +1;
=> how can the data sychronization know that there should be a lock
until the write?

I would write a class, encapsulating the data and all accesses to them.
So you can use the existing thread synchronisation.
