Visualizing the Synchronization of Java-Threads with UML
Concurrent programming is a complex task, even with modern languages such as Java who provide languagebased support for multithreading and synchronization. In addition to typical ...

Resources, Concurrency, and Local Reasoning (Abstract)
t) Peter W. O’Hearn Queen Mary, University of London In the 1960s Dijkstra suggested that, in order to limit the complexity of potential process interactions, concurrent programs...

Resources, Concurrency and Local Reasoning
In this paper we show how a resource-oriented logic, separation logic, can be used to reason about the usage of resources in concurrent programs.

A structural approach to quasi-static schedulability analysis of communicating concurrent programs
We describe a system as a set of communicating concurrent programs. Quasi-static scheduling compiles the concurrent programs into a sequential one. It uses a Petri net as an inter...

Reasoning About Threads Communicating via Locks
Abstract. We propose a new technique for the static analysis of concurrent programs comprised of multiple threads. In general, the problem is known to be undecidable even for progr...

Automated type-based analysis of data races and atomicity
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...

Run-time detection of potential deadlocks for programs with locks, semaphores, and condition variables
Concurrent programs are notorious for containing errors that are difficult to reproduce and diagnose. A common kind of concurrency error is deadlock, which occurs when some thread...

Producing scheduling that causes concurrent programs to fail
A noise maker is a tool that seeds a concurrent program with conditional synchronization primitives (such as yield()) for the purpose of increasing the likelihood that a bug manif...

Memory centric thread synchronization on platform FPGAs
Concurrent programs are difficult to write, reason about, re-use, and maintain. In particular, for system-level ions that use a shared memory abstraction for thread or process syn...

Cartesian Partial-Order Reduction
Verifying concurrent programs is challenging since the number of thread interleavings that need to be explored can be huge even for moderate programs. We present a cartesian semant...
