Half-Order Modal Logic: How to Prove Real-Time Properties
Abstract. We introduce a novel extension of propositional modal logic that is interpreted over Kripke structures in which a value is associated with every possible world. These val...

Parallel Algorithms for Arrangements
We give the first efficient parallel algorithms for solving the arrangement problem. We give a deterministic algorithm for the CREW PRAM which runs in nearly optimal bounds of O(lo...

Coordinating Resource Usage through Adaptive Service Provisioning in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) exhibit high levels of network dynamics and consist of devices with limited energy. This results in the need to coordinate applications no...

Transactional predication: high-performance concurrent sets and maps for STM
Concurrent collection classes are widely used in multi-threaded programming, but they provide atomicity only for a fixed set of operations. Software transactional memory (STM) pr...

A modular approach to shared-memory consensus, with applications to the probabilistic-write model
We define two new classes of shared-memory objects: ratifiers, which detect agreement, and conciliators, which ensure agreement with some probability. We show that consensus can...
