Violations of a number of common safety properties of multithreaded programs-such as
atomicity and absence of dataraces-cannot be observed by looking at the linear execution …

High-performance concurrent libraries, such as lock-free data structures and custom
synchronization primitives, are notoriously difficult to write correctly. Such code is often …

Even though most data races are harmless, the harmful ones are at the heart of some of the
worst concurrency bugs. Alas, spotting just the harmful data races in programs is like finding …

We present a new model checking procedure for concurrent systems against safety
properties such as data races or atomicity violations. Our analysis sidesteps the state space …

The interfaces of software components are often paired with specifications or protocols that
prescribe correct and safe usage. An important class of these specifications consists of …

Data race detection is highly essential for debugging multithreaded programs and assuring
their correctness. Nevertheless, there is no single universal technique capable of handling …

Asynchronous event-driven programming has become a central model for building
responsive and efficient software systems, from low-level kernel modules, device drivers …

We introduce ToleRace, a runtime system that allows programs to detect and even tolerate
asymmetric data races. Asymmetric races are race conditions where one thread correctly …

Locksmith is a static analysis tool for automatically detecting data races in C programs. In
this article, we describe each of Locksmith's component analyses precisely, and present …

jPredictor is a tool for detecting concurrency errors in Java programs. The Java program is
instrumented to emit property-relevant events at runtime and then executed. The resulting …
