Programming with POSIX threads David R. Butenhof
Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional




Python's thread and threading libraries use POSIX threads. I remember when working with POSIX threads (pthread(3)) that I used some kind of flag that was available on FreeBSD but not on Linux. Readers must also understand basic concurrent programming and be familiar with one or more threading methods, preferably OpenMP*, POSIX threads (also referred to as Pthreads), or the Win32* threading API. Some of the existing approaches to parallelization include using Windows and POSIX thread APIs, using MPI, and using the OpenMP shared memory threaded programming model. What threads give you is the ability for your program to do more than one thing at once . POSIX semaphores Userland Programming & Scripting. This is the fourth post in my Interviewing the Parallel Programming Idols-Series. The threading library is the higher level of the two and is therefore the one to use in your typical programming tasks. Butenhof An in-depth description of the IEEE operating system interface standard, POSIX threads, commonly called Pthreads. I don't think I need to introduce my interview-partner today to anyone who has done threads-programming (except maybe to the Windows-folks). Butenhof's excellent book Programming with POSIX Threads:. Every modern operating system has support for threads, and most programming environments provide some level of support for threading. OpenMP was developed because native operating system threads (often referred to as POSIX threads or Pthreads) programing can be cumbersome.

This means that your thread should only do compute-bound things, and should avoid calling just about any system or library function. The problem with threads is the It turns out that POSIX Threads, Mach Threads, Windows Threads, Java Threads, and C# Threads all work very much the same, since they're all implemented in more or less the same way.
