With the advent of chip-multiprocessors, we are faced with the challenge of parallelizing performance-critical software. Transactional memory (TM) has emerged as a promising progr...

This paper describes the design and performance of a new asynchronous method handling (AMH) mechanism that allows CORBA servers to process client requests asynchronously. AMH deco...

Continuous system dynamics can be described by, possibly large, systems of di erential equations. These can be either ordinary di erential equations (ODEs) or contain algebraic con...
In this work, we embark on a study of the possibility (or impossibility), and the corresponding costs, of devising concurrent, low-contention implementations of atomic Read-Modify...

Modern architectures implement relaxed memory models which may reorder memory operations or execute them non-atomically. Special instructions called memory fences are provided, al...
