A particularly insidious type of concurrency bug is atomicity violations. While there has been substantial work on automatic detection of atomicity violations, each existing techn...

We study the problem of monitoring concurrent program runs for atomicity violations. Unearthing fundamental results behind scheduling algorithms in database control, we build space...
In this paper, we propose ColorSafe, an architecture that detects and dynamically avoids single- and multi-variable atomicity violation bugs. The key idea is to group related data...
Concurrent programs are notorious for containing errors that are difficult to reproduce and diagnose at run-time. This motivated the development of type systems that statically en...

Concurrent programs are notorious for containing errors that are difficult to reproduce and diagnose. Two common kinds of concurrency errors are data races and atomicity violation...

Concurrency bugs are among the most difficult to test and diagnose of all software bugs. The multicore technology trend worsens this problem. Most previous concurrency bug detect...
Writing shared-memory parallel programs is error-prone. Among the concurrency errors that programmers often face are atomicity violations, which are especially challenging. They h...

Abstract. The reality of multi-core hardware has made concurrent programs pervasive. Unfortunately, writing correct concurrent programs is difficult. Atomicity violation, which is ...

Abstract. We propose a symbolic algorithm to accurately predict atomicity violations by analyzing a concrete execution trace of a concurrent program. We use both the execution trac...

To achieve high-performance on multicore systems, sharedmemory parallel languages must efficiently implement atomic operations. The commonly used and studied paradigms for atomici...
