Programming with Hyper-Threading Technology : How to Write Multithreaded Software for Intel IA-32 Processors (Engineer to Engineer series)
Programming with Hyper-Threading Technology How to Write Multithreaded Software for Intel IA-32 Processors - Engineer to Engineer series Author:Richard Gerber, Andrew Binstock Programming with Hyper-Threading Technology by Richard Gerber and Andrew Binstock helps software developers write high-performance multithreaded code while avoiding the common parallel programming issues that usually plague threaded programs. This book highlights how software developers can use Hyper-Threading Technology to maximize pro... more »cessor throughput, efficiency, and parallelism. It is a practical, hands-on volume with immediately usable code examples that enable readers to quickly master the necessary building blocks. Hyper-Threading Technology allows one physical processor to execute the instructions of multiple threads simultaneously, making the processor appear as two processors to the operating system. Likewise, Hyper-Threading Technology also enables a single processor to run two different programs at the same time without the delay of switching between them. The companion CD-ROM contains threading and optimization tools, code samples, and extensive technical documentation on Hyper-Threading Technology.« less
