1.		The Art of Multiprocessor Programming from Morgan Kaufmann Price: $62.95 Customer Review: This book is challenging. Several occasions I flipped between chapters reviewing earlier notational details I thought I understood only to come to the conclusion the book is inconsistent in usage. An example of this the introduction of the precedence relation operator "->" (a right pointing arrow).... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World from Pragmatic Bookshelf Price: $24.39 Customer Review: I found this to be a pretty easy read overall, but of course had to re-read some sections as I was coming across new concepts. It reminded me a lot of reading Kernighan and Ritchie way back when I was learning C. I don't say that because the author is the "father" of the language, but because... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		Programming Language Pragmatics from Morgan Kaufmann Customer Review: Programming Language Pragmatics 2nd Edition (PLP2e) is a fantastic book that covers a great deal of information. It starts with explaining lexing and parsing, and then goes into scope, target machine instructions, control flow, data structures, a number of paradigms, and building a runnable program.... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Using OpenMP: Portable Shared Memory Parallel Programming (Scientific and Engineering Computation) from The MIT Press Price: $30.17 Customer Review: I have most of the parallel computing books out there so I am sort of a collector of sorts. Most focus on either the basics of parallel programming, MPI, OpenMP, both, or some other less popular (yet) paradigm e.g. PFortran, TBB, etc. With every parallel-computing wanna be buying a multicore machine... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Linux Enterprise Cluster: Build a Highly Available Cluster with Commodity Hardware and Free Software from No Starch Press Price: $32.97 Customer Review: Theres plenty of information in here, but the biggest problem I had with working my way through the book is it's structure. The book presents the topics in a bottom-up way, kicking off with low-level xinetd & init configuration, and doesn't actually get down to an overview of clustering until... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Java Threads from O'Reilly Media, Inc. Price: $26.37 Customer Review: Not the best for learning about Java Threads, but you can use it as a reference when you have a different better book to understand all of the technical jargon...	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture Volume 2: Patterns for Concurrent and Networked Objects from Wiley Price: $68.00 Customer Review: This is an excellent book, but the patterns (Connector, Acceptor, Acceptor-Connector, Reactor, Proactor, Half Sync-Half Async .....) are all available in MORE expansive (yes more expansive) form on the ACE site. Just Google "ACE Framework" and you will see Doug Schmidt and his ACE related... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Concurrent Programming in Java: Design Principles and Patterns (Java Series) from Addison-Wesley Pub (Sd) Customer Review: The book contains a lot of concurrent and parallel programming theories, but the organization of the contents is not well formed, such that the reading and understanding of the book are hard. The examples giving in the book are not very helpful either. Overall, the book seems to target for... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		Higher-Order Perl: Transforming Programs with Programs from Morgan Kaufmann Price: $43.44 Customer Review: good book, for people with computer science background! otherwise a little hard to understand the algorithm.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Turtles, Termites, and Traffic Jams: Explorations in Massively Parallel Microworlds (Complex Adaptive Systems) from The MIT Press Price: $19.80 Customer Review: This book presents the concepts of decentralization using the StarLogo programming language. Unfortunately, the code examples are for a early version of StarLogo and will not work correctly with current versions of this programming language. I still think it is a great book for learning about the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
