"I've been dreaming for a while of a modern accessible book that I could recommend to my threading-deprived colleagues and assorted enquirers to get them up to speed with the core concepts of multithreading as well as something that covers all the major current interesting implementations. Finally I have that book." -- Martin Watt, Principal Engineer, Dreamworks Animation, "I've been dreaming for a while of a modern accessible book that I could recommend to my threading-deprived colleagues and assorted enquirers to get them up to speed with the core concepts of multithreading as well as something that covers all the major current interesting implementations. Finally I have that book." - Martin Watt, Principal Engineer, Dreamworks Animation, "McCool, Reinders, and Robison have written an extremely lucid and well-motivated explanation of how parallel programming should be, with plenty of code snippets that illustrate the use of the techniques they advocate for. this book provides an excellent introduction to parallel programming for anyone interested in getting the most of current multicore processors. What is more important, this book not only teaches how to implement parallel algorithms using current API's (namely, TBB) or the language du jour (i.e. Cilk Plus), but it equips you with the design tools that will let you write maintainable, efficient, and scalable code, no matter which specific software tools you use. What you will learn is easily transferable to the programming language or platform of your choice."-- Software Engineering News, March 2013

Synopsis
Structured Parallel Programming offers the simplest way for developers to learn patterns for high-performance parallel programming. Written by parallel computing experts and industry insiders Michael McCool, Arch Robison, and James Reinders, this book explains how to design and implement maintainable and efficient parallel algorithms using a composable, structured, scalable, and machine-independent approach to parallel computing. It presents both theory and practice, and provides detailed concrete examples using multiple programming models. The examples in this book are presented using two of the most popular and cutting edge programming models for parallel programming: Threading Building Blocks, and Cilk Plus. These architecture-independent models enable easy integration into existing applications, preserve investments in existing code, and speed the development of parallel applications. Examples from realistic contexts illustrate patterns and themes in parallel algorithm design that are widely applicable regardless of implementation technology. Software developers, computer programmers, and software architects will find this book extremely helpful., Structured Parallel Programming offers the simplest way for developers to learn patterns for high-performance parallel programming.

    Northwest Coast Discoveries was a pleasure to deal with. The listing for this book was very detailed and helpful (including video of flipping through the pages of a lightly used book). Seller provided great communication upon purchase and shipped the item immediately. Shipping time was quick. Packaging of the book was superb and even in plastic wrap (see picture). Great seller!

    The little humming Bird lamp is exquisite! It is even More beautiful than the photos and is as described. It is high quality with lovely blown glass flower and detailed wrought iron work. The seller shipped it very very quickly. It was packed with bubble wrap in a sturdy box to ensure it would not brake. It arrived in perfect condition and works well. It was a great price! with very reasonable shipping. The seller has marvelous communication and customer service. Great eBay seller!
