The DPI is part of the IEEE 1800-2012 standard, which you can get for free here. I am not aware of any other books that cover this topic, but there are a number of on-line sites if you search for the SystemVerilog DPI. There are a few examples of the DPI in the directory that comes with ModeslSim.

Thank you for your kind answer.
To speak frankly, I don’t know how to compile the examples of the DPI in modelsim installed folder. In example folder,there are some files,which are related with them.
Step by Step, I want to know how to compile DPI files, which are coded as imported function/task, and exported function/task.(There is no full source code in IEEE 1800.
There is few imported function / task and exported function /task examples in Web.
The book SystemVerilog for Verification has a complete chapter on DPI, building up examples from scratch. Make sure you get the 3rd edition, in red, for the best examples.
Cheers,
Chris

Thank you very much for your recommendation book.
I read the recommended book and have to study more deeply.
I think that systemverilog is more difficult than verilog.
I want to have more easy and detailed book for a beginner.
Thanks again and again.
