Understanding why the performance of a multithreaded program does not improve linearly with the number of cores in a sharedmemory node populated with one or more multicore process...
Multithreading has been proposed as an architectural strategy for tolerating latency in multiprocessors and, through limited empirical studies, shown to offer promise. This paper ...

We present a novel dynamic analysis technique that finds real deadlocks in multi-threaded programs. Our technique runs in two stages. In the first stage, we use an imprecise dyn...

The MPI-2 Standard has carefully specified the interaction between MPI and usercreated threads. The goal of this specification is to allow users to write multithreaded MPI progr...
Deadlock is an increasingly pressing concern as the multicore revolution forces parallel programming upon the average programmer. Existing approaches to deadlock impose onerous bu...
