Start a Thread with std::async is an excerpt from, Introduction to C++ Concurrency LiveLessons Video Training: [ Ссылка ]

Introduction to C++ Concurrency LiveLessons introduces the principles of concurrency by creating and running simple programs. It not only shows how to write correct code, but also discusses the dangers and pitfalls of concurrency such as data races, deadlocks, livelocks, and more.

Description: 4 hours of video instruction -- C++ is undergoing rapid changes to support concurrent and parallel programming. The 2011 Standard introduced a new multicore memory model, atomic variables, threads, asynchronous tasks, and synchronization primitives. Work is being done to add even more support in the future. It’s no longer enough to just learn some new syntax and library API. There’s a need to gain a deeper understanding of the theory and mechanics of concurrency, and Bartosz leads you to that understanding in this video training.
