Description
During the compilation process of the current project on the Windows platform, an error has emerged. It has been found that the project references "pthread.h", which is exclusive to the Unix platform. In order to make the project support cross-platform compatibility, it is recommended that "pthread.h" be substituted with "thread" and "mutex" from the std standard library.

Research direction
Locate the project's references to pthread.h and inspect how threading and mutexes are used around those includes. Replace the platform-specific dependency with the standard C++ threading interfaces, then verify that the project compiles on Windows while retaining cross-platform support.
