Hi. I'm finishing up "The Art of Multiprocessor Programming" by
Herlihy and Shavit. Now, I'm faced with the dilemma of what to book to
study from next.

taomp was a great introduction to data structures for shared memory.
As a next step, I'd like to learn how to use these data structures. In
addition, I have a PS3, and I'd like to hack around with it a bit, so
I'm also interested in algorithms for distributed-memory
architectures.

I'm not interested in any specific types of algorithms, I just want to
get a general feel for multicore programming. I imagine I'll be taking
random topcoder solutions and trying to get them to run as fast as
possible on multicores. I'm in the video game industry, so anything
which ties into graphics/physics/etc. would be helpful as well.

Does anyone have any text book reccomendations for me?

Thanks,
Kevin
