Is Parallel Programming Hard, And, If So, What Can You Do About It?
by Paul E. McKenney
2011
Number of pages: 413
Description:
The purpose of this book is to help you understand how to program shared-memory parallel machines without risking your sanity. By describing the algorithms and designs that have worked well in the past, we hope to help you avoid at least some of the pitfalls that have beset parallel projects.
