Pro Sync framework
Kanjilal J., Singh R., Apress, Berkeley, CA, 2008. 352 pp. Type: Book (9781430210054)
The combination of available computing devices, networks, and databases has produced its own share of technological challenges. The problem of synchronizing data among these devices and their applications is especially difficult, given...

The perfectly synchronized round-based model of distributed computing
Delporte-Gallet C., Fauconnier H., Guerraoui R., Pochon B. Information and Computation 205(5): 783-815, 2007. Type: Article
The number and complexity of computer interconnections increase daily as we move from Web 1.0 to pervasive and ubiquitous computing. Despite this real and increasing demand, most programmers don’t consider themselves prac...

Monitors: a case study
Hoare C. In The origin of concurrent programming. New York, NY: Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., 2002. Type: Book Chapter
This is a reprint of a 1974 classic by C.A.R. Hoare, in which Brinch Hansen’s concept of a monitor is used to structure an operating system. A form of process synchronization is introduced, and a possible approach to implemen...

Designing Tree-Based Barrier Synchronization on 2D Mesh Networks
Yang J., King C. IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems 9(6): 526-534, 1998. Type: Article
The authors point out the shortcomings of path-based routing schemes for barrier synchronization. They then put forward a tree-based scheme that skirts these problems. There are two major tasks in the proposed scheme: establishing a co...

Scheduler-conscious synchronization
Kontothanassis L., Wisniewski R., Scott M. ACM Transactions on Computer Systems 15(1): 3-40, 1997. Type: Article
The performance degradation of many synchronization algorithms in the presence of multiprogramming is addressed in this technical paper. According to the authors, many synchronization algorithms have been designed to run on dedicated m...

Programming with UNIX threads
Northrup C., John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, NY, 1996. Type: Book (9780471137511)
Northrup has written an application programming interface (API) reference and tutorial on the threads package supported by Unix System V Release 4.2, UnixWare 4.2, and Solaris 2.x. Although the services and concepts are similar, this t...

Dynamic fault-tolerant clock synchronization
Dolev D., Halpern J., Simons B., Strong R. Journal of the ACM 42(1): 143-185, 1995. Type: Article
First impressions are often important in reading research reports containing lots of proofs and theorems. This research report makes an excellent first impression, and rightfully so. It is extremely well written, with above-average exp...

Effects of the checkpoint interval on time and space in time warp
Preiss B., Loucks W., Macintyre I. ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation 4(3): 223-253, 1994. Type: Article
Optimistically synchronized parallel discrete-event simulation is based on the use of communicating sequential processes. When synchronization errors are detected, processes are rolled back to an earlier state that has been checkpointe...

Coordinating first-order multiparty interactions
Joung Y., Smolka S. ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems 16(3): 954-985, 1994. Type: Article
A first-order multiparty interaction generalizes Ada’s rendezvous and the communication sequential processes (CSP) communication mechanisms to allow more than two participating processes. An interaction is first-order if the ...

An effective synchronization network for hot-spot accesses
Hsu W., Yew P. ACM Transactions on Computer Systems 10(3): 167-189, 1992. Type: Article
The interesting idea of using a dedicated single-stage combining network to handle hot-spot memory traffic is presented. The single-stage combining network is separated from the normal interconnection network for regular memory traffic...
