The following are three possible tracks to teaching a multiprocessor programming course using the material in the book.

The first track is a short course for practitioners who are interested in techniques that can be applied directly to problems at hand.

The second track is a longer course for students who are not Computer Science majors, but who are interested in learning the basics of multiprocessor programming, as well as techniques likely to be useful in their own areas.

The third track is a semester-long course for Computer Science majors, either upper-level undergraduates or graduate students.
