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] - 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. - LinuxThreads FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the kernel-level multi-threading library for Linux. - Multi-Threaded Programming with POSIX Threads
Attempts to show how the library's features can be used in "real-life" target="_blank" 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 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" target="_blank" implementation. [PDF] - 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. [PDF] - POSIX Synchronous Wrappers

Dives into the world of threads with a little bit of "theory" target="_blank" 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. (August 20, 2002)
