As boost::threads resemble POSIX threads API, it might be worthwhile to
take a look at
"Programming with POSIX Threads" by David R Butenhof

The Adaptive Communications Environment (ACE) provides some nice
high-level design patterns (Reactor, Proactor, etc.) and frameworks to
develop distributed, multi-threaded applications (see
http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html). There are several books
that discuss this library in detail: C++ Network Programming Vols 1+2
and the The ACE Programmer's Guide.

In addition to the Boost.Thread library there is a new library, asio,
that has been accepted into Boost for asynchronous I/O that implements
some of the same ACE design patterns using more advanced, but less
portable C++ techniques (you need a good standards-conforming C++
compiler).

I would like to add that at a lower layer, one can find the patterns that


ACE was built upon in Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture, Volume 2, by
Schmidt, et al. I have had good experiences with this book.
