Multithreaded programs often suffer from synchronization bugs such as atomicity violations and deadlocks. These bugs arise from complicated locking strategies and ad hoc synchroni...

This paper takes a step toward developing a theory for understanding aborts in transactional memory systems (TMs). Existing TMs may abort many transactions that could, in fact, co...
—PhoneFactor is a two-factor authentication service that combines the knowledge-based authenticator with an objectbased authenticator in which the object-based authenticator has ...
Due to the advent of multi-core processors and the consequent need for better concurrent programming abstractions, new synchronization paradigms have emerged. A promising one, kno...
