Abstract: Many future computers will be shared-memory multiprocessors. These hardware systems must define for software the allowable behavior of memory. A reasonable model is sequential consistency (SC), which makes a shared memory multiprocessor behave like a multiprogrammed uniprocessor. Since SC appears to limit some of the optimizations useful for aggressive hardware implementations, researchers and practitioners have defined several relaxed consistency models. Some of these models just relax the... (Update)
