Specifying and checking semantic atomicity for multithreaded programs
In practice, it is quite difficult to write correct multithreaded programs due to the potential for unintended and nondeterministic interference between parallel threads. A funda...

Atomizer: a dynamic atomicity checker for multithreaded programs
Ensuring the correctness of multithreaded programs is difficult, due to the potential for unexpected interactions between concurrent threads. Much previous work has focused on det...

Specifying and checking protocols of multithreaded classes
In the Design By Contract (DBC) approach, programmers specify methods with pre and postconditions (also called contracts). Earlier work added protocols to the DBC approach to desc...

Subtleties of Transactional Memory Atomicity Semantics
Abstract-- Transactional memory has great potential for simplifying multithreaded programming by allowing programmers to specify regions of the program that must appear to execute ...

Composable specifications for structured shared-memory communication
In this paper we propose a communication-centric approach to specifying and checking how multithreaded programs use shared memory to perform inter-thread communication. Our approa...
