A Discipline of Multiprogramming 1

A Discipline of Multiprogramming ( preliminary draft ) JAYADEV

Research in multiprogramming has, traditionally, attempted to reconcile two apparently contradictory goals: (1) it should be possible to understand a module (e.g., a process or a data object) in isolation, without considerations of interference by the other modules, and (2) the implementation should permit a ne level of granularity so that no process is ever locked out of accessing common data ...

Toward a Discipline of Real-Time Programming, 1977

Programming is divided into three major categories with increasing complexity of reasoning in program validation: sequential programming, multiprogramming, and real-time programming. By adhering to a strict programming discipline and by using a suitable high-level language molded after this discipline, the complexity of reasoning about concurrency and execution time constraints may be drastical...

A Simple, Object-Based View of Multiprogramming

Object-based sequential programming has had a major impact on software engineering. However, object-based concurrent programming remains elusive as an effective programming tool. The class of applications that will be implemented on future high-bandwidth networks of processors will be significantly more ambitious than the current applications (which are mostly involved with transmissions of dig...
