Multiprocessor Programming
I am only 20 pages into it, but The Art of Multiprocessor Programming has become my new reference book. It deals with all kinds of lock-free algorithms, queues, and synchronization methods.
Going forward, it is critical that programmers understand how to deal with multiprocessor systems. While this book focuses on shared memory systems, the concepts are still applicable to the PS3 (which does not have a shared memory system due to the SPUs).
