Theory of Concurrent Programming
|
||||
|
Java Concurrency in Practice
Brian Goetz, Joseph Bowbeer Addison-Wesley, May 2006 ISBN: 0321349601 |
|||
| Detailed and thorough coverage of multithreading issues in Java, including all Java 5.0 novelties. | ||||
|
Concurrency : State Models & Java Programs
Jeff Magee, Jeff Kramer John Wiley and Sons Ltd, March 1999 ISBN: 0471987107 |
|||
| Concurrent programs are notoriously difficult to get right. This book provides a systematic and practical approach to designing, analyzing and implementing concurrent programs. The examples are in Java, but the book provides a sound theoretical background that is language independent. | ||||
|
The Art of Multiprocessor Programming
Maurice Herlihy & Nir Shavit Morgan Kaufmann, March 2008 ISBN: 0123705916 |
|||
| An advanced book on creating nonblocking algorithms. It kind of explains the underlying algorithms of the concurrency utilities in the java.util.concurrent package. | ||||
|
Programming Concurrency on the JVM: Mastering Synchronization, STM,
and Actors
Venkat Subramaniam Pragmatic Bookshelf, September 2011 ISBN: 193435676X |
|||
| A book on concurrent programming on the JVM that does not focus on Java alone. Instead, most examples are first given in Java, then a simpler way is shown in Scala, occasionally followed by a short section using JRuby and Groovy. The book describes the difficulties of concurrent programming on multi-core platforms. It then describes three "solutions": the naïve Java approach, Software Transactional Memory and Actors. Actor based samples are mainly done using Akka. Software Transactional Memory is explained using Clojure STM and Akka/Multiverse STM. | ||||

REVIEW |
Concurrent Programming in Java : Design Principles and
Patterns
Doug Lea Addison-Wesley, November 1996 ISBN: 0-201-69581-2 |
||
| This used to be one of the best book about concurrent programming and is still interesting reading. It uses Java as the implementation language for examples, but much of the content can easily be translated to other object-oriented languages such as C++. | ||||
|
Concurrent Programming in Java, 2nd Ed. : Design Principles and
Patterns
Doug Lea Addison-Wesley, November 1999 ISBN: 0-201-31009-0 |
|||
|
The second edition is radically revised compared to the
first edition. It is still a very good book, but it might provide
more details than you might want to be confronted with. The first
edition is still a good alternative.
There is an Online Supplement available that has additional information about concurrent programming in Java. |
||||
|
Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture, Vol. 2: Patterns
for Concurrent and Networked Objects
Douglas Schmidt, Michael Stal, Hans Rohnert, Frank Buschmann John Wiley & Sons, September 2000 ISBN: 0471606952 |
|||
|
The book covers a broad range of patterns covering core
elements of building concurrent and networked systems: service access and
configuration, event handling, synchronization, and concurrency. The patterns
are presented in various programming languages, including C++, C, and Java.

Java Core Programmierung: Memory Model und Garbage Collection
Klaus Kreft & Angelika Langer entwickler.Press, August 2011, deutsch ISBN-10: 3868020756 |
|||
| A paperback in German that compiles articles previously published in a German Java magazine. Half of the book is devoted to the Java memory model. The articles are available online at http://www.angelikalanger.com/Articles/EffectiveJava.html . | ||||
Concurrent and Distributed Programming in C++
|
||||
|
|
C++ Network Programming, Vol. 1: Mastering Complexity
Using ACE and Patterns
Douglas C. Schmidt, Stephen D. Huston Addison-Wesley, December 2001 ISBN: 0201604647 |
|||
|
This book guides software professionals through the traps
and pitfalls of developing efficient, portable, and flexible networked
applications. It explores the inherent design complexities of concurrent
networked applications and the tradeoffs
that must be considered when working to master them. For further information on the book see http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE/book1/ . |
||||
|
|
C++ Network Programming, Vol. 2: Systematic Reuse with
ACE and Frameworks
Douglas C. Schmidt, Stephen D. Huston Addison Wesley, November 2002 ISBN: 0201795256 |
|||
|
The book illustrates the key patterns that underlie the
structure and functionality of the ACE frameworks.
For further information on the book see http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE/book2/ . |

Parallel and Distributed Programming Using C++
Cameron Hughes, Tracey Hughes Addison-Wesley, September 2003 ISBN: 0131013769 |
|||
Practical Guides to Concurrent Programming in Java
|
||||
|
Java Threads, 3rd Edition
Scott Oaks, Henry Wong O'Reilly September 2004 ISBN: 0-596-00782-5 |
|||
| The book aims to cover everything you need to know about threads, from the simplest animation program to the most complex applications. The 3rd edition incorporates the concurrency utilities and has new chapters on thread performance, using threads with Swing, threads and Collection classes, thread pools, and threads and I/O (traditional, new, and interrupted). | ||||
|
Java Thread Programming
by Paul Hyde Sams, August 1999 ISBN: 0672315858 |
|||
|
Taming Java Threads
Allen Holub APress, May 2000 ISBN: 1893115100 |
|||
| Both books are guides for Java programmers, who explain the Java means for implementing concurrent programs. The focus is on Java programming rather than the theory behind concurrent programming. Both books were subject of a comparative book review at the JavaWorld website. | ||||
Specific Non-Java Thread APIs |
||||
|
Multithreaded Programming with Java Technology
Bil Lewis, Daniel Berg, Daniel J. Berg Prentice Hall PTR, December 1999 ISBN: 0130170070 |
|||
| This is NOT a book about Java, it's a book about multithreading. The author is clearly a C type who has come to Java and tries to basically recreate the semantics of C POSIX threading in Java. See also a comparative book review published at the JavaWorld website. | ||||
|
Programming With Posix Threads
David R. Butenhof Addison-Wesley, May 1997 ISBN: 0201633922 |
|||
|
Threads Primer : A Guide to Solaris Multithreaded Programming

|||
|
Pthreads Programming
Bradford Nichols, Dick Buttlar, Jacqueline Proulx Farrell O'Reilly & Associates, September 1996 ISBN: 1565921151 |
|||
|
Multithreading Applications in Win32 : The Complete Guide
