Parallel Roles for Practical Deterministic Parallel Programming

- Summary

Abstract

Deterministic parallel programming languages are attractive as they do not allow data races, deadlocks, or similar kinds of concurrency bugs that are caused by unintended (or poorly understood) parallel execution. We present here a simple programming model for deterministic parallel programming that is based on roles. The programmer specifies the role that an object plays for a task (e.g., the Open image in new window role), and compiler and runtime system together ensure that only those object accesses are performed that are allowed by this role. An object may play different roles in the course of a program’s execution, giving the programmer considerable flexibility in expressing a parallel program.
