Weakly-Constrained Codes for Suppression of Patterning Effects in Digital Communications
—We propose weakly-constrained stream and block codes with tunable pattern-dependent statistics and demonstrate that the block code capacity at large block sizes is close to the ...

Single global lock semantics in a weakly atomic STM
As memory transactions have been proposed as a language-level replacement for locks, there is growing need for well-defined semantics. In contrast to database transactions, transa...
