Multiple threads running in a single, shared address space is a simple model for writing parallel programs for symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) machines and for overlapping I/O and ...
Correct handling of concurrently accessed external resources is a demanding problem in programming. The standard approaches rely on database transactions or concurrency mechanisms...
Data parallel programs are sensitive to the distribution of data across processor nodes. We formulate the reduction of inter-node communication as an optimization on a colored gra...
In this paper we first outline and discuss the issues of currently accepted computational models for hybrid CPU/FPGA systems. Then, we discuss the need for researchers to develop ...

Concurrency is pervasive in large systems. Unexpected interference among threads often results in "Heisenbugs" that are extremely difficult to reproduce and eliminate. W...
