Relaxed memory models: an operational approach
Memory models define an interface between programs written in some language and their implementation, determining which behaviour the memory (and thus a program) is allowed to hav...

An Automata-Based Symbolic Approach for Verifying Programs on Relaxed Memory Models
This paper addresses the problem of verifying programs for the relaxed memory models implemented in modern processors. Specifically, it considers the TSO (Total Store Order) relax...

Software Transactional Memory on Relaxed Memory Models
Abstract. Pseudo-code descriptions of STMs assume sequentially consistent program execution and atomicity of high-level STM operations like read, write, and commit. These assumptio...

Brief announcement: view transactions: transactional model with relaxed consistency checks
We present view transactions, a model for relaxed consistency checks in software transactional memory (STM). View transactions always operate on a consistent snapshot of memory bu...

Dynamic synthesis for relaxed memory models
Modern architectures implement relaxed memory models which may reorder memory operations or execute them non-atomically. Special instructions called memory fences are provided, al...
