While current bug detection techniques for concurrent software focus on unearthing low-
level issues such as data races or deadlocks, they often fall short of discovering more …

Modern databases embrace weak isolation levels to cater for highly available transactions.
However, weak isolation bugs have recently manifested in many production databases. This …

The Lamport diagram is a pervasive and intuitive tool for informal reasoning about “happens-
before” relationships in a concurrent system. However, traditional axiomatic formalizations of …

Happens before-based dynamic analysis is the go-to technique for detecting data races in
large scale software projects due to the absence of false positive reports. However, such …

Dynamic data race detection has emerged as a key technique for ensuring reliability of
concurrent software in practice. However, dynamic approaches can often miss data races …

Array-based encodings of tree structures are often preferable to linked or abstract data type-
based representations for efficiency reasons. Compared to the more traditional encodings …

Dynamic analyses are a standard approach to analyzing and testing concurrent programs.
Such techniques observe program traces σ and analyze them to infer the presence or …

Logical clocks are a fundamental tool to establish causal ordering of events in a distributed
system. They have been applied in weakly consistent storage systems, causally ordered …

Monitoring concurrent programs typically rely on collecting traces to abstract program
executions. However, existing approaches targeting general behavioral properties are either …

Logical clocks are a fundamental tool to establish causal ordering of events in a distributed
system. They have been used as the building block in weakly consistent storage systems …
