I just wanted to give this book a ’shout out’. I have been plenty of reading on Safari and I this is one book that I really liked.

Parallel and Distributed Programming using C++

It is a great raw overview of processes, threads, pthreads, MPI and some other stuff. I am not really a big fan of PVM implementations - and CORBA is ..dead.. but - the rest of the book was really excellent. I recommend it to anyone trying to work with *nix and multithreading, interprocess communication, or full on distributed computing. It has a great bottom up approach to explaining it all. It has great code references and is written in a very understandable way. Check it out
-Enjoy-
