The 'volatile' keyword in C/C++ programming is used to indicate that a variable may be modified by hardware directly or by other threads concurrently. It ensures that the compiler will not optimize reads and writes to volatile variables, which can improve performance in cases where these variables are used for communication between hardware components or when multiple threads access the same variable.
