Synopsis

This is the official SunSoft documentation that describes the primary facilities for implementing multi-threaded applications. It describes the services and capabilities of the multithreaded library, covering topics such as thread basics, thread creation and scheduling, synchronization, signals, threads and process resources, advanced topics, using threads, the threads environment, debugging techniques, and example applications.

From the Back Cover

Multithreading separates a process into many independent execution threads which can improve application responsiveness, program structure, and performance. These threads allow multiprocessors to operate more efficiently while using fewer system resources and uniprocessors.
