Abstract—Many applications are concurrent and communicate over a network. The non-determinism in the thread and communication schedules makes it desirable to model check such sys...
Abstract. We address the problem of developing efficient cache coherence protocols implementing distributed shared memory (DSM) using message passing. A serious drawback of traditi...
The verification of concurrent systems through an exhaustive traversal of the state space suffers from the infamous state-space-explosion problem, caused by the many interleavings ...
In this essay we discuss the origin, central results, and some perspectives of algorithmic synthesis of nonterminating reactive programs. We recall the fundamental questions raised...
In this work we reduce interconnect power dissipation in Symmetric Multiprocessors or SMPs. We revisit snoopy cache coherence protocols and reduce unnecessary interconnect activit...
