About the Book

Concurrency with Modern C++ is a journey through current and upcoming concurrency in C++.

  • C++11 and C++14 have the basic building blocks for creating concurrent or parallel programs.
  • With C++17 we got the parallel algorithms of the Standard Template Library (STL). That means, most of the algorithms of the STL can be executed sequential, parallel, or vectorized.
  • The concurrency story in C++ goes on. With C++20/23 we can hope for executors, extended futures, coroutines, transactions, and more.

This book explains you the details to concurrency in modern C++ and gives you, in addition, more than 100 running code examples . Therefore you can combine the theory with the practices and get the most of it.

Because this book is about concurrency, I present a lot of pitfalls and show you how to overcome them.

About the Author

Rainer
Rainer

I worked as a software architect, team lead and instructor for about 20 years. In my spare time, I like to write articles on the topics C++, Python and Haskell, but I also like to speak at conferences. Since 2016 I'm independent trainer giving seminars about modern C++ and Python.

My books "C++ 11 für Programmierer ", "C++" and "C++ Standardbibliothek kurz & gut" for the "kurz & gut" series were published by the publisher Pearson and O'Reilly. They are available in German, English, and Korean. In summer 2018 I published a new book at Leanpub: "Concurrency with Modern C++". This book is also available in German at Hanser: "Modernes C++: Concurrency meistern".

I'm the author of the two well-known blogs.

Senior Development Engineer Software at Esterline

'Concurrency with Modern C++' is your practical guide to getting familiar with concurrent programming in Modern C++. Starting with the C++ Memory Model and using many ready-to-run code examples, the book covers a good deal of what you need to improve your C++ multithreading skills. Next to the enlightening case studies that will bring you up to speed, the overview of upcoming concurrency features might even wet your appetite for more!

Rainer Grimm's Concurrency with Modern C++ is a well written book covering the theory and practice for working with concurrency per the existing C++ standards, as well as addressing the potential changes for the upcoming C++ 20 standard. He provides a conversational discussion of the applications and best practices for concurrency along with example code to reinforce the details of each topic. An informative and worthwhile read!

Concurrency with Modern C++ is the easiest way to become an expert in the multithreading environment. This book contains both simple and advanced topics, and it has everything a developer needs, in order to become an expert in this field: Lots of content, a big number of running code examples, along with great explanation, and a whole chapter for pitfalls. I enjoyed reading it, and I highly recommend it for everyone working with C++.
