Additional information
<07> The work in this paper describes how to implement atomic sections using lock inference. It greatly improves on previous techniques by using instance-locks, supporting iteration and not requiring annotations. The work led to Harris of Microsoft funding a PhD to scale the ideas to Java. The lead author successfully completed his PhD and now works on the implementation of X, IBM’s state-of-the-art concurrent OO language for the next generation of highly parallel architectures 0 http://x10-lang.org/. Acceptance rate was 25%/71.
