We present the design of a formal low-level multi-threaded language with advanced region-based memory management and synchronization primitives, where well-typed programs are memo...
Abstract. Transactional memory (TM) promises to simplify construction of parallel applications by allowing programmers to reason about interactions between concurrently executing c...
