POSIX :
POSIX threads, based on the IEEE POSIX 1003.1c-1995 (also called the ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996) standard, are most common on Unix and Unix-like systems. POSIX is an acronym for: Portable Operating System Interface for UniX. Much like TRON, POSIX is not a body of computer code that is compiled and run on some processor. Rather, it is a set of standards (IEEE 1003.1): interfaces, design guidelines, software design specifications, defining (for creating) the computer code that will become language interfaces between an OS kernel and its programs, to give compatibility when moving programs between compatible systems. POSIX is made mostly of features from BSD Unix and Unix System V. Much like Open Source software, all POSIX standards are copyrighted (by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc., IEEE; new versions have joint copyright by IEEE and Open Group), but available for use by software developers anywhere in the world for free. Thus the OS architecture based on POSIX is an open architecture that invites and welcomes cloning and interoperability.

POSIX Threads Explained, Part 1
How to use POSIX threads to increase the responsiveness and performance of your code.
Getting Started with POSIX Threads
Introduction to POSIX threads with sample source available for download.
Introduction to Programming Threads
Introduces what threads are, why they are useful and how to program with them using the POSIX 1003.1c thread standard and API bindings for C.
Next Generation POSIX Threading: NGPT
Goals: solve problems of pthreads library on Linux; add M:N threading, raise POSIX compliance and speed in threaded programs, more so under SMP, give threading services more like commercial Unix. Derived from GNU Pth. [Open Source, LGPL]
LinuxThreads FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the kernel-level multi-threading library for Linux.
GNU Pth
Portable Threads: portable POSIX/ANSI-C library for Unix gives non-preemptive priority-based scheduling for multithreading in programs. All threads run in same address space, each has its own program counter, run time stack, signal mask, errno variable; cooperative scheduling: threads dispatched based on priority, pending events. [Open Source, GPL]
