We study a family of implementations for linked lists using finegrain synchronisation. This approach enables greater concurrency, but correctness is a greater challenge than for ...

The combination of message passing and locking to protect shared state is a useful concurrency pattern. However, programs that employ this pattern are susceptible to deadlock. That...
We have implemented parallelism primitives that permit an ACL2 programmer to parallelize execution of ACL2 functions. We (1) introduce logical definitions for these primitives, (...
Systems that authenticate a user based on a shared secret (such as a password or PIN) normally allow anyone to query whether the secret is a given value. For example, an ATM machi...
Cleogo is a novel groupware environment that allows several users to simultaneously develop programs through any mixture of three alternative programming metaphors: a direct manip...
