A Refinement Calculus for Shared-Variable Parallel and Distributed Programming
Parallel computers have not yet had the expected impact on mainstream computing. Parallelism adds a level of complexity to the programming task that makes it very error-prone. More...

Building BSP Programs Using the Refinement Calculus
Abstract. We extend the refinement calculus to permit the derivation of programs in the Bulk Synchronous Parallelism (BSP) style. This demonstrates that formal approaches developed...

Examples of Program Composition Illustrating the Use of Universal Properties
Abstract. This paper uses a theory of composition based on existential and universal properties. Universal properties are useful to describe components interactions through shared ...

Transactional programming for distributed agent systems
A new multiagent programmingparadigm based on the transactional logic model' is developed. This paradigm enables us to construct a Distributed agent transactional program (DA...

Scalable Monitoring Technique for Detecting Races in Parallel Programs
Detecting races is important for debugging shared-memory parallel programs, because the races result in unintended nondeterministic executions of the programs. Previous on-the- y t...
