- POSIX Threads Explained, Part 1 - http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/posix1.html
How to use POSIX threads to increase the responsiveness and performance of your code.
- Introduction to Programming Threads - http://www.mit.edu/people/proven/IAP_2000/index.html
Introduces what threads are, why they are useful and how to program with them using the POSIX 1003.1c thread standard and API bindings for C.
- Next Generation POSIX Threading: NGPT - http://www-124.ibm.com/pthreads/
Goals: solve problems of pthreads library on Linux; add M:N threading, raise POSIX compliance and speed in threaded programs, more so under SMP, give threading services more like commercial Unix. Derived from GNU Pth. [Open Source, LGPL]
- LinuxThreads FAQ - http://pauillac.inria.fr/~xleroy/linuxthreads/faq.html
Frequently asked questions about the kernel-level multi-threading library for Linux.
- GNU Pth - http://www.gnu.org/software/pth/
Portable Threads: portable POSIX/ANSI-C library for Unix gives non-preemptive priority-based scheduling for multithreading in programs. All threads run in same address space, each has its own program counter, run time stack, signal mask, errno variable; cooperative scheduling: threads dispatched based on priority, pending events. [Open Source, GPL]
- Native POSIX Thread Library: NPTL - http://people.redhat.com/drepper/nptl-design.pdf
White paper describes actual implementation of thread library for which requirements are spelled out in a prior document. Many things are different. [Red Hat, PDF]
- POSIX Threads Explained, Part 2 - http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-posix2/
How to protect the integrity of shared data structures in threaded code by using mutexes.
- Threads - http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/threads.html
The Single UNIX Specification (Version 2) standard for threads. Includes manual pages of all POSIX thread functions.
- POSIX Threads Tutorial - http://www.laptev.org/doc/pthreads.html
How to write parallel applications using POSIX threads. By Mark Hays.
- An Introduction to POSIX Threads - http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-pthred.html
This article demystifies the POSIX thread interface, providing practical examples of threaded code for consideration.
- POSIX Synchronous Wrappers - http://www.partow.net/programming/posixsynchwrapper/index.html
A set of C++ wrappers for posix synchronous entities such as pthread, mutexes and condition.
- Multi-Threaded Programming with POSIX Threads - http://users.actcom.co.il/~choo/lupg/tutorials/multi-thread/multi-thread.html
Attempts to show how the library's features can be used in "real-life" programs. It explains the different tools defined by the library, shows how to use them, and then gives an example of using them to solve programming problems.
- POSIX Threads Programming - http://www.llnl.gov/computing/tutorials/pthreads/
Provides an overview of threads programming and the POSIX threads API.
