Transient faults that arise in large-scale software systems can often be repaired by re-executing the code in which they occur. Ascribing a meaningful semantics for safe re-execut...
Process-oriented programming is a design methodology in which software applications are constructed from communicating concurrent processes. A process-oriented design is typically ...

When comparing OpenMP to other parallel programming models, it is easier to choose between OpenMP and MPI than between OpenMP and POSIX Threads (Pthreads). With languages like C a...
Deadlock is an increasingly pressing concern as the multicore revolution forces parallel programming upon the average programmer. Existing approaches to deadlock impose onerous bu...
Transactional memory is an attractive design concept for scalable multiprocessors because it offers efficient lock-free synchronization and greatly simplifies parallel software....
