The Taub Faculty of Computer Science Events and Talks

In the last two decades, a main way to improve performance of computer processors has been producing processors with multiple cores, on which tasks may execute concurrently. Software is required to keep up with the hardware advances and supply concurrent algorithms for programs that run on multiple cores. This talk will focus on a fundamental building block of concurrent algorithms: concurrent data structures, designed with improved efficiency while also satisfying strong correctness and progress guarantees and robustness to failures.
