You can now create a rouge MD5-based CA certificate. Here is the research paper released last week that explains this in detail technical terms:
MD5 considered harmful today

If you want a layman explanation to this issue, you should rather start with this blog:

RSA Data Security is one among others who issue CA certs. If you want to read about the immediate response from RSA on this , read the blog

Book : Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture: Patterns for Concurrent and Networked Objects

Reasonable preview of the book available at the above link for you to decide whether you really need this or not.

To me it looks like the one place documentation that I will refer to when you dont find your colleagues to share your confused state of mind when making a design decision.

Available at Amazon.com at $60. Shipping cost to India = +$9 approx.

Online Tutorial : C++ Multithreading -- Synchronisation Primitives Patterns and Idioms

The author says and I quote, "The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce techniques for safe and efficient concurrent programming. We'll begin by reviewing the basic concepts, and then move on to cover concurrency design patterns."

Rightly said!

The second part of the tutorial is not for the novice programmer, it may not make sense. But if you have done some amount of multi-threaded design and appreciate the challenges it poses, or if you are using Boost libraries and wished that they had better examples to explain, then this is a good resource to read.

Fun Read : Another interesting argument on the forum
