As the computer industry changes from single-processor to multiprocessor architectures, this revolution requires a fundamental change in how programs are written. To leverage the performance and power of multiprocessor programming, also known as multicore programming, you need to learn the new principles, algorithms, and tools presented in this book. It includes fully-developed Java examples detailing data structures, synchronization techniques, transactional memory, and more. Prof. Maurice Herlihy, who coined the phrase "transactional memory," is on the faculty of Brown University. He is the recipient of the 2003 Dijkstra Prize in distributed computing. Prof. Nir Shavit is on the faculty of Tel-Aviv University and a member of the technical staff at Sun Microsystems Laboratories. In 2004 they shared the Gödel Prize, the highest award in theoretical computer science.
* THE book on multicore programming, the new paradigm of computer science
* Written by the world's most revered experts in multiprocessor programming and performance
* Includes examples, models, exercises, PowerPoint slides, and sample Java programs
For example, we might be unhappy if we deposit our paycheck on Monday, but the bank bounces our rent check the following Friday because it reordered our deposit after your withdrawal. (查看原文)
深入学习一个领域最好的方法就是读这个领域权威人物写的教材，最好是每章后面带有chapter notes的那种，共享内存并发同步领域的The Art of Multiprocessor Programming这本书就是如此，作者M. Herlihy本身就提出了并发同步相关的很多重要理论和方法。全书以一致的风格介绍领域...

This book is very new. I'm still wondering why the authors titled this book multeprocessors instead of much more eye-attractive multicore. Maybe they tought they are actually the same unsolved problems. Parallelization came from very specific domains like O...

作者是该领域的权威，译者也不是无名之辈，但翻译质量实在太差了。 以前言的第二段部分内容为例： Readers should know enough discrete mathematics to understand “big-O” notation, and what it means for a problem to be NP-complete. It is helpful to be familiar wit...

as the title, this's about art more than engineering

这本书是我们的课本。不知道为什么这么多人竟然说很好。个人感觉读过以后仍然一头雾水，不得不去翻翻原来的paper看，通过读由来的paper以后清楚很多。比如说第三章讲linearizable，就很不清楚。这本书只能当目录来看，里面有很多不详细的内容，还有很多错误的地方，都需要去翻翻paper才能明白。
