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...
A central problem in extending the von Neumann architecture to petaflop computers with millions of hardware threads and with a shared memory is defining the memory model [Lam79,...
The specification of the Java Memory Model (JMM) is phrased in terms of acceptors of execution sequences rather than the standard generative view of operational semantics. This cre...
Language-basedextensible systems, such as Java Virtual Machines and SPIN, use type safety to provide memory safety in a single address space. By using software to provide safety, ...

Denotational static analysis of Java bytecode has a nice and clean compositional definition and an efficient implementation with binary decision diagrams. But it models only the f...
