This blog is a follow-up to "The folly of DIY multithreading" (which @Ailop is now updating) and it starts a series about various flavors of concurrency platforms

  • Thread pools ("the simplest")
  • OpenMP
  • Intel's Threading Building Blocks
  • Message passing
  • Data-parallel languages
  • Cilk++

It discusses some practical pros and cons of thread pools.
