This work presents a model of a distributed database system which provides the framework to study the performance of timestamp ordering concurrency control. We exhibit an analytic...
—We give a denotational framework (a “meta model”) within which certain properties of models of computation can be compared. It describes concurrent processes in general term...
Future space missions, such as Mars Science Laboratory, are built upon computing platforms providing a high degree of autonomy and diverse functionality. The increased sophisticat...

Only a handful of fundamental mechanisms for synchronizing the access of concurrent threads to shared memory are widely implemented and used. These include locks, condition variab...
We present the formal framework for a novel approach for specifying and automatically implementing systems such as digital circuits and network protocols. The goal is to reduce the...
