As shared-memory multiprocessors become the dominant commodity source of computation, parallelizing compilers must support mainstream computations that manipulate irregular, point...
—Masking fault-tolerance guarantees that programs continually satisfy their specification in the presence of faults. By way of contrast, nonmasking fault-tolerance does not guara...
Most complexity measures for concurrent algorithms for asynchronous shared-memory architectures focus on process steps and memory consumption. In practice, however, performance of ...
How can we design a PDA that is at the same time secure and usable? In current implementations the two properties are mutually exclusive. Because normal users find password entry ...
Abstract--Many shared-memory parallel systems use lockbased synchronization mechanisms to provide mutual exclusion or reader-writer access to memory locations. Software locks are i...
