Being a multi-thread newbie (my wife says I have a one track mind), I actually enjoyed the article. However, it's pretty clear that there this is only one member of a larger class of algorithms related to multi-processing.

Is anyone aware of a good primer on the subject?

Generally speaking, it sounds like a lot of the divide and conquer CS algorithms could potentially use this approach, assuming other constraints (IO and network volume) aren't an issue...
