The most intuitive memory model for shared-memory multithreaded programming is sequential consistency (SC), but it disallows the use of many compiler and hardware optimizations th...

When students first learn programming, they often rely on a simple operational model of a program’s behavior to explain how particular features work. Because such models build o...
In these notes, we give an overview of the join calculus, its semantics, and its equational theory. The join calculus is a language that models distributed and mobile programming. ...
I show how a conversational process that takes simple, intuitively meaningful steps may be understood as a sophisticated computation that derives the richly detailed, complex repr...
Abstract. Conceptual models are formal descriptions of application domains that are used in early stages of system development to support requirements analysis. The Unified Modeli...
