Abstract

The multi-thread programming is a widely used approach to build high performance parallel and distributed applications. The massive spreading in recent years of processors containing multiple independent cores that can operate independently is a prerequisite for the development of multi-threaded model. The software developer must be able to choose different functionality of multi-threaded libraries depending on the specifics of the various tasks to solve. The paper presents the features of the implementation of general-purpose hybrid multi-threaded library under Linux, which allows running both in user and kernel-space mode. A comparative analysis of performance with Linux library pthreads is performed. The results indicate that the presented library has reached identical, and in certain cases - high performance.
