This book will teach you the finer points of multithreading and concurrency concepts and how to apply them efficiently in C++.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDivided into three modules, we start with a brief introduction to the fundamentals of multithreading and concurrency concepts. We then take an in-depth look at how these concepts work at the hardware-level as well as how both operating systems and frameworks use these low-level functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the next module, you will learn about the native multithreading and concurrency support available in C++ since the 2011 revision, synchronization and communication between threads, debugging concurrent C++ applications, and the best programming practices in C++.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the final module, you will learn about atomic operations before moving on to apply concurrency to distributed and GPGPU-based processing. The comprehensive coverage of essential multithreading concepts means you will be able to efficiently apply multithreading concepts while coding in C++.\u003c\/p\u003eStyle and approach\u003cp\u003eThis book is filled with examples that will help you become a master at writing robust concurrent and parallel applications in C++.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47177421029616,"sku":"9781787121898","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781787121898_p0.jpg?v=1763738421","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781787121898","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
