I would suggest using tasks. Have a look at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.threading.tasks(v=vs.110).aspx[^] namespace.

To compare the differences between Task and Backgroundworker, have a look at http://blog.stephencleary.com/2013/05/taskrun-vs-backgroundworker-round-1.html[^]

Also for the use in WPF have a look at
- Using the Task Parallel Library (TPL) in WPF[^]
- Task Parallel Library: 1 of n[^]
