Using Coordination to Restructure Sequential Source Code into a Concurrent Program
نویسندگان
چکیده
A workable approach for modernization of existing software into parallel/distributed applications is through coarse-grain restructuring. If, for instance, entire subroutines of legacy code can be plugged into a new structure, the investment required for the re-discovery of the details of what they do can be spared. The resulting renovated software can then take advantage of the improved performance offered by modern parallel/distributed computing environments, without rethinking or rewriting the bulk of their ex-

متن کاملDetecting and Eliminating Potential Violation of Sequential Consistency for Concurrent C/C++ Programs
When a concurrent shared-memory program written with a sequential consistency (SC) model is run on a machine implemented with a relaxed consistency (RC) model, it could cause SC violations that are very hard to debug. To avoid such violations, programmers need to provide explicit synchronizations or insert fence instructions. In this paper, we propose a scheme to detect and eliminate potential ...
متن کاملAquinas Hobor Research Statement
I am interested in improving software reliability through specification and verification techniques. Recently I have focused on improving the reliability of concurrent programs. Multi-core processors are leading to an increasing number of programs that utilize concurrency. Unfortunately, concurrency bugs tend to be among the most difficult to discover through testing. Therefore to improve the r...
متن کاملImplementing Mobile and Distributed Applications in X-Klaim
In this paper we present X-KLAIM, an experimental programming language specifically designed to program distributed systems composed of several components interacting through multiple distributed tuple spaces and mobile code. The language consists of a set of coordination primitives inspired by Linda, a set of operators for building processes borrowed from process algebras and a few classical c...
