Speculative Linearizability

Rachid Guerraoui, Viktor Kuncak, Giuliano Losa

Linearizability is a key design methodology for reasoning about implementations of concurrent abstract data types in both shared memory and message passing systems. It provides the illusion that operations execute sequentially and fault-free, despite the a ...

Why STM can be more than a Research Toy

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli, Aleksandar Dragojevic, Pascal Felber

Software Transactional Memory (STM) promises to simplify concurrent programming without requiring specific hardware support. Yet, STM’s credibility lies on the extent to which it enables to leverage multicores and outperform sequential code. A recent CACM ...

Leveraging Parallel Nesting in Transactional Memory

Rachid Guerraoui, Michal Kapalka, Aleksandar Dragojevic

Exploiting the emerging reality of affordable multi-core architectures goes through providing programmers with simple abstractions that would enable them to easily turn their sequential programs into concurrent ones that expose as much parallelism as possi ...

Theory of Transactional Memory

Michal Kapalka

Transactional memory (TM) is a promising paradigm for concurrent programming, in which threads of an application communicate, and synchronize their actions, via inmemory transactions. Each transaction can perform any number of operations on shared data, an ...

Formalizing and verifying transactional memories

Vasu Singh

Transactional memory (TM) has shown potential to simplify the task of writing concurrent programs. TM shifts the burden of managing concurrency from the programmer to the TM algorithm. The correctness of TM algorithms is generally proved manually. The goal ...

SeamCAD: a hierarchy-oriented modeling language and a computer-aided tool for entreprise architecture

Lam Son Lê

Modeling Enterprise Architecture requires representing multiple diagrams of an enterprise, which typically shows the multiples business entities, IT systems, even software components and the services they offer. This could be done by a team of stakeholders ...

Actors that Unify Threads and Events

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

In practice, concurrent programming systems based on message passing are often instantiations of the actor model. A popular implementation of this form of concurrency is the Erlang programming language. Erlang supports massively concurrent systems such as ...

Towards CPU Load Prediction for Java Bytecode

Andrea Camesi

This paper studies the use of bytecode instruction counting (BIC) to estimate the CPU load due to the execution of Java programs in different environments. BIC is the basis of the J-RAF2 framework to monitor and control the resource consumption of Java cod ...

On the complexity of integer programming in fixed dimension

Friedrich Eisenbrand

Summary form only given. Integer programming is the problem of maximizing a linear function over the integer vectors which satisfy a given set of inequalities. A wide range of combinatorial optimization problems can be modeled as integer programming proble ...
