Abstract A web programmer often conceives its application as a sequential entity, thus neglecting the parallel nature of the underlying execution environment. In this environment, ...
While concurrency in embedded systems is most often supplied by real-time operating systems, this approach can be unpredictable and difficult to debug. Synchronous concurrency, i...
—Fast track is a software speculation system that enables unsafe optimization of sequential code. It speculatively runs optimized code to improve performance and then checks the ...
