Title

Tervel: A Unification Of Descriptor-Based Techniques For Non-Blocking Programming

Abstract

The development of non-blocking code is difficult; developers must ensure the progress of an operation on shared memory despite conflicting operations. Managing this shared memory in a non-blocking fashion is even more problematic. The non-blocking property guarantees that progress is made toward the desired operation in a finite amount of time. We present a framework that implements memory reclamation and progress assurance for code that follows the semantics of our framework. This reduces the effort required to implement non-blocking, and more specifically wait-free, algorithms. We also present a library that demonstrates the ease with which wait-free algorithms can be implemented using our framework.
