Effective Program Verification for Relaxed Memory Models
Program verification for relaxed memory models is hard. The high degree of nondeterminism in such models challenges standard verification techniques. This paper proposes a new veri...

Bounded Model Checking of Concurrent Data Types on Relaxed Memory Models: A Case Study
Many multithreaded programs employ concurrent data types to safely share data among threads. However, highly-concurrent algorithms for even seemingly simple data types are difficul...

Dynamic synthesis for relaxed memory models
Modern architectures implement relaxed memory models which may reorder memory operations or execute them non-atomically. Special instructions called memory fences are provided, al...

Hardware Support for Relaxed Concurrency Control in Transactional Memory
Today's transactional memory systems implement the two-phase-locking (2PL) algorithm which aborts transactions every time a conflict happens. 2PL is a simple algorithm that pr...

Relaxed memory models: an operational approach
Memory models define an interface between programs written in some language and their implementation, determining which behaviour the memory (and thus a program) is allowed to hav...
