rrent ML, synchronization abstractions can be defined and passed as values, much like functions in ML. This mechanism admits a powerful, modular style of concurrent programming, c...
This article investigates formal properties of a family of semantically sound flow-sensitive type systems for tracking information flow in simple While programs. The family is ind...
The movement to multi-core processors increases the need for simpler, more robust parallel programming models. Atomic sections have been widely recognized for their ease of use. T...
