Since Perl 5.8, thread programming has been available using a model called *interpreter threads* which provides a new Perl interpreter for each thread, and, by default, results in no data or state information being shared between threads. (Prior to P...

This module implements threads for perl. One crucial difference with "threads.pm" threads is that the threads are disconnected, except by message queues. It thus facilitates a message passing style of multi-threading. Please note that this module is ...

This module extends threads to provide behaviors that are more conformant to what POSIX prescribes. You should realize that this doesn't in any way change the threads themselves, just how you intereract with them. Everything not described here should...

By default, variables are private to each thread, and each newly created thread gets a private copy of each existing variable. This module allows you to share variables across different threads (and pseudo-forks on Win32). It is used together with th...

I want to have my perl-gtk app query a database using DBI and display the query results. Some of the queries can take minutes to run and a naive implementation would mean all GUI interaction was blocked until the $dbh->execute returned. This seems to...

This module provides a means to share PDL data between different Perl threads. In contrast to PDL's posix thread support (see PDL::Parallel::CPU or, for older versions of PDL, PDL::ParallelCPU), this module lets you work with Perl's built-in threadin...

It is fairly common to write tests that need to use threads. Not all systems support threads. This library does the hard work of checking if threading is supported on the current system. If threading is not supported then this will skip all tests and...

This module provides a helper to ensure threads can/must have own instances of some variables. It ensures that all variables marked to get "reap"ed are "undef" in a new thread (instead being a clone like default behaviour)....

In my experience, parallel algorithms are nearly always expressed in a form called single-instruction, multiple-dataset (SIMD). That is, the exact same code runs in multiple threads, and the only difference between the threads is the data they manipu...
