Multithreading is a requirement for good performance of systems with multi-core chips. This book explains how to maximize the benefits of these processors through a portable C library that works on Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Unix systems. It explains the key tasks in multithreading and how to accomplish them with TBB in a useful manner.Multi-core chips from Intel and AMD offer a dramatic boost in speed and responsiveness, and plenty of opportunities for multiprocessing on ordinary desktop computers. But they also present a challenge: More than ever, multithreading is a requirement for good performance. This guide explains how to maximize the benefits of these processors through a portable C++ library that works on Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Unix systems. With it, you'll learn how to use Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB) effectively for parallel programming -- without having to be a threading expert.Written by James Reinders, Chief Evangelist of Intel Software Products, and based on the experience of Intel's developers and customers, this book explains the key tasks in multithreading and how to accomplish them with TBB in a portable and robust manner. With plenty of examples and full reference material, the book lays out common patterns of uses, reveals the gotchas in TBB, and gives important guidelines for choosing among alternatives in order to get the best performance.You'll learn how Intel Threading Building Blocks:Enables you to specify tasks instead of threads for better portability, easier programming, more understandable source code, and better performance and scalability in generalFocuses on the goal of parallelizing computationally intensive work to deliver high-level solutionsIs compatible with other threading packages, and doesn't force you to pick one package for your entire programEmphasizes scalable, data-parallel programming, which allows program performance to increase as you add processorsRelies on generic programming, which enables you to write the best possible algorithms with the fewest constraintsAny C++ programmer who wants to write an application to run on a multi-core system will benefit from this book. TBB is also very approachable for a C programmer or a C++ programmer without much experience with templates. Best of all, you don't need experience with parallel programming or multi-core processors to use this book.

In 1795, New Orleans was a sleepy outpost at the edge of Spain's American empire. By the 1820s, it was teeming with life, its levees packed with cotton and sugar. New Orleans had become the unquestioned urban capital of the antebellum South. Looking at this remarkable period filled with ideological struggle, class politics, and powerful personalities, Building the Land of Dreams is the narrative biography of a fascinating city at the most crucial turning point in its history. Eberhard Faber tells the vivid story of how American rule forced New Orleans through a vast transition: from the ordered colonial world of hierarchy and subordination to the fluid, unpredictable chaos of democratic capitalism. The change in authority, from imperial Spain to Jeffersonian America, transformed everything. As the city's diverse people struggled over the terms of the transition, they built the foundations of a dynamic, contentious hybrid metropolis. Faber describes the vital individuals who played a role in New Orleans history: from the wealthy creole planters who dreaded the influx of revolutionary ideas, to the American arrivistes who combined idealistic visions of a new republican society with selfish dreams of quick plantation fortunes, to Thomas Jefferson himself, whose powerful democratic vision for Louisiana eventually conflicted with his equally strong sense of realpolitik and desire to strengthen the American union. Revealing how New Orleans was formed by America's greatest impulses and ambitions, Building the Land of Dreams is an inspired exploration of one of the world's most iconic cities.show more

In this engaging and practical book Mark Pike and Thomas Lickona show how C.S. Lewis' wisdom for nurturing good character, and his much-loved Chronicles of Narnia, inspire us to virtue. Drawing upon the Judeo-Christian virtues of faith, hope and love and 'Narnian' virtues such as courage, integrity and wisdom, they present an approach to contemporary character education validated by recent research. An introduction to C. S. Lewis' thought on character and faith is followed by practical examples of how to use well-known passages from the Narnia novels as a stimulus for rich character development at home and in the classroom. show more

Ukraine Embroidered Pillow Case "Kylym", Ukrainian Shop, Prey for Ukraine, I Stand with Ukraine, Authentic pillows, 15,7" X 15,7", Modern Etno Home Decor, Etno Geometric Ornament, Gift for Her. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE ! The ornament for this pillow is stylized by the designer from a towel of the XX century of the Podolsk region of Ukraine. The basis of the ornament - a rhomb is a symbol of fertility (both women and land), welfare. Often such ornaments were embroidered on wedding towels. I make pillows with love for details. Neat minimalist tag with my logo that does not interfere with the design. The lock behind is almost invisible, but thanks to it the pillowcase can be removed and washed. I use home-woven fabric for a pillowcase, and then decorate it with embroidery. This material has been around for a long time, since the days of weaving. Then it was made of hemp and flax, and it was woven at home (hence the name of the canvas). This process lasted about a year of manual labor (from sowing plants to spinning and weaving the canvas itself). Now, of course, production has almost completely moved to the factory, but the composition remained natural, only hemp was replaced by cotton, and flax remained in the composition. Threads for embroidery were chosen woolen, but here acrylic thread is added to the wool so that the product does not sit down when washed, is better used and retains its beautiful appearance longer. Pillow patterns are embroidered by me by hand, and then copies are embroidered by machine. The final product that people buy is embroidered with a machine, ie it is not a complete handmade. You can write it or not mention it as you see fit. Linen pillowcase with a clasp, removable. High-quality machine embroidery. 40 x 40 cm. Can be washed and ironed. Will brighten your interior or become a stylish gift. The filler is hypoallergenic holofiber. Made with love in Ukraine. Thank you very much for visiting my store YasykHomeDecor ! Glory to Ukraine ????????

You will not find another quartz formation on the matrix like this. It's one of a kind! This quartz specimen is special for a few reasons. It has multiple rare formations. One section of the cluster is a triplet quartz with 3 nearly identical quartz crystals coming out of the matrix and biggest crystal. The biggest crystal is attached with cross crystals to the second biggest crystal. the second biggest crystal has a twin forming into it. The biggest point has the 3 different crystals forming into it as well. The matrix is filled with lines of micro crystals and is part of a quartz vein. It is exactly as it was when hand mined by us. It has only been washed by water to preserve its natural energy. There is almost no imperfections in any of the crystals. The biggest crystal is double terminated but the bottom of the crystal seems to have naturally separated from the vein and has left one imperfection on this specimen that makes it more special and natural - just as it was supposed to be dug out of the ground. Does this specimen call to you? Then it is meant to be. This collector grade specimen would be a great part of your crystal collection, display nicely at home or on your desk at work. It has many purposes but one is to help ground and calm you when feeling anxious by looking at it or holding it. You will not find another specimen like this.

This point is crystal clear & it is exactly as it was when we hand dug it. This point is used to inspire confidence, ease anxiety, become more in tune with yourself & more. It has been preserved just as it was pulled from the earth by us (to keep the energy pure, natural & at its full power.) Washed only with water. Every purchase supports our journey of shifting perspectives on those with disabilities by helping us be able to live our shared dream of crystal mining all over the world as an interabled couple (with one of us in a wheelchair) & Sharing these adventures through our videos to everyone. All proceeds go towards supporting that dream & the unique expenses & challenges we encounter having one of us paralyzed, while traveling fulltime.

"365 Days of Happiness" is the cover of the book "INSPIRED faith: 365 days a year" published by Thomas Nelson. ***TITLE: “365 Days of Happiness” ***SIZE: 4 x 12" x 24" x 0.8" (total size: 48” x 24” x 0.8”) I have discovered this painting is being offered here on ETSY and some other websites. I only sell this painting on ETSY and my own website: www.qiqigallery. Any other sites are all selling my original work without my authorization. Please report to me if you find this painting is being offered anywhere else. Very much appreciated. This painting has a very deeper meaning to me. When I ask people around me what season they like best, they always choose just one. But I love all the seasons. Each season is so unique and all so beautiful in their own way. I think it’s a blessing when I can experience all 4 seasons this earth has to offer. Spring is beautiful because that’s when everything comes back to life. The sky waters the earth with rainfalls and the grass turns a lush green. The birds come back from the southern hemisphere and I can hear them sing in the morning when I wake up. Summer is beautiful because when I look up into the sky I see puffy white clouds lining the azure sky. I close my eyes and breath in the fresh air before jumping into a lake glittering with life. Life, because that was when my joy and love was born. Autumn is a bittersweet season. As the leaves die, they begin to change into colors of red, yellow and orange. Scattering themselves on the branches of trees and covers the grass with their harmonious warm colors. It will be a while before I see colors in the seasons again. Winter is beautiful because when the frozen flowers made of water begin to fall, it covers the grass like a thick blanket. I walk outside at night and look around. Everything is still, quiet and covered in white. I breathe in the cold, crisp air. I see my breath as I exhale. 365 days is almost complete. But each of those 365 days was filled with love and happiness. Let all your days be filled with love and happiness. **COLORS: Rich in vibrant colors such as blue, green, red, yellow, orange, brown, and violet. ***THEME: Four seasons: winter, spring, summer and autumn using the same tree but with different colors of swelling leaves. This painting consists of four 12”x24” panels. ***MEDIUM: Professional grade acrylics or oils on stretched canvas. The sides are painted black, so there's no need to frame it. A coating of varnish is applied to protect the painting. ***SHIPPING: Canada Post Expedited to US or Canada. Your art will be shipped to you professionally packed with protective packaging material.
