We present a new pointer analysis for use in shared memory programs running on hierarchical parallel machines. The analysis is motivated by the partitioned global address space lan...
Numerous tools have been proposed to help developers fix software errors and inefficiencies. Widely-used techniques such as memory checking suffer from overheads that limit thei...
