Proceedings ArticleDOI
Language constructs for transactional memory
TL;DR: It is argued that one way of trying to resolve questions is to be rigorous about keeping the ideas of atomic blocks and TM separate, and that, when thinking about atomic blocks, the authors should keep a wide range of possible implementations in mind.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Supporting stateful tasks in a dataflow graph
TL;DR: The ADF model provides an easy-to-program optimistic concurrency substrate and enables a task to safely share data with other concurrent tasks and increase the programmability of shared memory systems.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
DistIR: An Intermediate Representation for Optimizing Distributed Neural Networks
TL;DR: DistIR as mentioned in this paper is an IR for explicitly representing distributed DNN computation that can capture many popular distribution strategies, such as data, horizontal, and pipeline parallelism, and can be used to automatically search for an optimal distribution strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Composable scheduler activations for Haskell
TL;DR: A novel concurrency substrate design for the Glasgow Haskell Compiler is described that allows multicore schedulers for concurrent and parallel Haskell programs to be safely and modularly described as libraries in Haskell.
Patent
Lightweight transactional memory for data parallel programming
TL;DR: In this article, an alternative use for transactional memory is provided, namely implementing atomic work items that are run asynchronously from their creation in a thread, by using retry to express condition synchronization, providing a general mechanism for controlling when and in what order they are executed.
