Writing concurrent programs is notoriously hard due to scheduling non-determinism. The most common concurrency bugs are data races, which are accesses to a shared resource that can be executed concurrently. Dynamic data-race prediction is…

Dynamic race detection is the problem of determining if an observed program execution reveals the presence of a data race in a program. The classical approach to solving this problem is to detect if there is a pair of conflicting memory…

Dynamic race detection based on the happens before (HB) partial order has now become the de facto approach to quickly identify data races in multi-threaded software. Most practical implementations for detecting these races use timestamps to…

Data races, a major source of bugs in concurrent programs, can result in loss of manpower and time as well as data loss due to system failures. OpenMP, the de facto shared memory parallelism framework used in the HPC community, also suffers…

We study the compressed representation of a ranked tree by a (string) straight-line program (SLP) for its preorder traversal, and compare it with the well-studied representation by straight-line context free tree grammars (which are also…

We consider the problem of evaluating regular spanners over compressed documents, i.e., we wish to solve evaluation tasks directly on the compressed data, without decompression. As compressed forms of the documents we use straight-line…

One of many approaches to better take advantage of parallelism, which has now become mainstream, is the introduction of parallel programming languages. However, parallelism is by nature non-deterministic, and not all parallel bugs can be…

What properties about the internals of a program explain the possible differences in its overall running time for different inputs? In this paper, we propose a formal framework for considering this question we dub trace-set discrimination.…
