12.8 Additional Reading

A number of books on POSIX thread programming are available. They include Programming with POSIX(R) Threads by Butenhof [19], Pthreads Programming: A POSIX Standard for Better Multiprocessing by Nichols et al. [87], Multithreaded Programming with Pthreads by Lewis and Berg [72] and Thread Time: The Multithreaded Programming Guide by Norton and DiPasquale. All these books are based on the original POSIX standard. The book Distributed Operating Systems by Tanenbaum [121] presents an understandable general discussion of threads. Approaches to thread scheduling are discussed in [2, 12, 32, 78]. Finally, the POSIX standard [49, 51] is a surprisingly readable account of the conflicting issues and choices involved in implementing a usable threads package.
