- An asynchronous IO tutorial – C/Win32 API
- Asynchronous File IO on Linux – C
- Glibc Asynchronous IO – manual page; a bit of explanation on POSIX aio, but mostly just reference
- http://davmac.org/davpage/linux/async-io.html – talks about the various different ways of implementing asynchronous IO on Linux and why they all have issues…
- An example of async IO in C# – not a lot of explanation, just code; C# is of course a bit high level for understanding what’s going on at the machine level
- async IO programming with libevent – this is not finished (or just an excerpt)
- async IO in Mac development
- async IO on Windows – a small writeup on OVERLAPPED vs completion ports (the author works on the Parrots VM) ; async IO on Linux
- An overview of the Linux async IO
- kernel level async IO for Linux – available since 2.5
