Specifying and checking semantic atomicity for multithreaded programs
In practice, it is quite difficult to write correct multithreaded programs due to the potential for unintended and nondeterministic interference between parallel threads. A funda...

Scalable and systematic detection of buggy inconsistencies in source code
Software developers often duplicate source code to replicate functionality. This practice can hinder the maintenance of a software project: bugs may arise when two identical code ...

Composable specifications for structured shared-memory communication
In this paper we propose a communication-centric approach to specifying and checking how multithreaded programs use shared memory to perform inter-thread communication. Our approa...
