Threads
|
» A Thread Performance Comparison  - Compares Windows NT and Solaris on a symmetric multiprocessor machine.
» Await && Locks - An expressive C++ thread synchronization library.
» Bibliography on Threads and Multithreading - Part of the Computer Science Bibliography Collection.
» Concurrent Programming: Principles and Practice - This book provides an in-depth overview of underlying principles as well as practical techniques that can be used to design concurrent programs. (Greg Andrews)
» Designing a Thread Class in C++ - Resources on designing a thread class in C++. Provides introduction, basic approach, implementation and using the class thread in C++.
» Foundations of Multithreaded, Parallel, and Distributed Programming - This book teaches the fundamental concepts of multithreaded, parallel and distributed computing. Emphasizes how to solve problems, with correctness the primary concern and performance an important, but secondary, concern. (Gregory R. Andrews)
» Fundamentals of Multithreading - Technical article, covering Amdahl's Law, latencies and bandwidth, on-chip multiprocessing, Jackson technology, and simultaneous multithreading. (SystemLogic.net)
» Generic Synchronization Policies in C++ - Most uses of synchronization code in multi-threaded applications fall into a small number of high-level “usage patterns”, or what can be called generic synchronization policies (GSPs). This paper illustrates how the use of such GSPs simplify the writi
» Introduction to Priority Inversion - Gives an introduction to priority inversion and shows a pair of techniques to avoid them.
» It's (Not) All Been Done - Every decade or so there is a major revolution in the way software is developed. But, unlike the object and web revolutions, the concurrency revolution can be seen coming.
» Lock-free Interprocess Communication - Interprocess communication is an essential component of modern software engineering. Often, lock-free IPC is accomplished via special processor commands. This article propose a communication type that requires only atomic writing of processor word from pr
» Multi-threaded Debugging Techniques - Describes a number of general purpose debugging techniques for multi-threaded applications.
» Portable Thread Synchronization using C++ - Provides example C++ classes implementing a series of synchronization objects useful for building portable (Solaris and Win32) multithreaded applications.
» Priority Inheritance Protocols - Use of synchronization mechanisms like semaphores, monitors, and critical regions can lead to uncontrolled priority inversion. [PDF file]
» Protothreads - Very lightweight stackless threads; give linear code execution for event-driven systems, designed to use little memory; library is pure C, no platform-specific Assembly; usable with or without OS. Open source, BSD-type license.
» RT++ - Higher order threads for C++; tutorial and reference manual.
» Software and the Concurrency Revolution - Focuses on the implications of concurrency for software and its consequences for both programming languages and programmers. (Herb Sutter and James Larus)
» State Threads Library - Small application library for writing fast, highly scalable Internet programs on Unix-like platforms. Open source, MPL or GPL.
» Survey of Threads - Comparing Solaris, Linux, and Windows NT threads.
» The Free Lunch Is Over: A Fundamental Turn Toward Concurrency in Software - The biggest sea change in software development since the OO revolution is knocking at the door, and its name is Concurrency.
» The Problem with Threads - Argues that for concurrent programming to become mainstream, threads must be discarded as a programming model. Nondeterminism should be judiciously and carefully introduced where needed, and it should be explicit in programs.
» Thread Implementation Table - Dave Butenhof's comparison of thread implementations.
» ZThreads - An advanced object-oriented, cross-platform C++ threading and synchronization library. [GPL]
» comp.programming.threads FAQ - Frequently asked questions (by Bryan O'Sullivan).
» volatile - Multithreaded Programmer's Best Friend - Discusses the usage of the volatile keyword in multithreaded C++ programs.
