POSIX Threads on HP-UX 11i
Provides an overview of the thread model implementation on HP-UX 11i and describes the impact that each thread model has on application behavior and performance.
Native POSIX Thread Library (NPTL) 0.1 Released
Initial performance: 8x Linux Threads, 4x NGPT. [Linux Weekly News]
LinuxThreads FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the kernel-level multi-threading library for Linux.
Native POSIX Thread Library: NPTL
White paper describes actual implementation of thread library for which requirements are spelled out in a prior document. Many things are different.
Multi-Threaded Programming with POSIX Threads
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.
Multithreaded Programming (pthreads Tutorial)
Dives into the world of threads with a little bit of "theory" first. Examine thread synchronization primitives and how to use POSIX pthreads. Finally, it finishes off with thread performance and a brief overview of multiprocess programming.
POSIX Threads Explained, Part 1
How to use POSIX threads to increase the responsiveness and performance of your code.
POSIX Threads Explained, Part 2
How to protect the integrity of shared data structures in threaded code by using mutexes.
POSIX Threads Explained, Part 3
How to use condition variables.
An Introduction to POSIX Threads
This article demystifies the POSIX thread interface, providing practical examples of threaded code for consideration.
GNU 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]
POSIX Threads Tutorial
How to write parallel applications using POSIX threads. By Mark Hays.
Semaphores in Linux
An explanation of semaphores under Linux, including a comparison of System V and POSIX style semaphores. Code examples show how semaphores are used.
POSIX Threads Programming
Provides an overview of threads programming and the POSIX threads API.
Introduction to Programming Threads
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.
Threads
The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 6 (IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004 Edition) chapter for threads. Includes manual pages of all POSIX thread functions.
POSIX Synchronous Wrappers
A set of C++ wrappers for posix synchronous entities such as pthread, mutexes and condition.
Multithreaded Programming with Pthreads
In addition to scheduling, synchronization and signal handling special emphasis is placed on cancellation, error expedition, performance, hardware and languages. (Daniel J. Berg, Bil Lewis)
Multithreading in the Solaris Operating Environment
Describes the new thread implementation of the Solaris 9 Operating Environment which adopted a highly tuned and tested "1:1" thread model in preference to the historic "MxN" implementation.
