Answer 2

I bought the vb.net version of this book C# Threading Handbook (Paperback) from amazon, which has all the reference i need.

Answer 3

I recommend Joe Duffy's new book on concurrency on Windows. He covers both the Win32 API and the .NET framework. Excellent reading.

Answer 4

• The Art of Multiprocessor Programming with examples in Java (many can be rewritten in C++, but some get tricky due to garbage collection).
• Patterns for Parallel Programming
• Concurrency and Coordination Runtime, Parallel Framework Extensions, Microsoft concurrency page - different Microsoft approaches for .NET attempting to catch up Java with different high-level concurrency concepts (JSR166, JSR 166y)
• Java Concurrency in Practice (doesn't meet the criteria of C++/C#)
• Partial Lock-Free data structures
• C++ Concurrency in Action - will cover multithreading from modern C++ point of view
• Herb Sutter about concurrency
• C++0x proposals, for example N2709, N2744, etc.
