cs453-2023-project's Introduction

CS-453 - Course project

The description includes:

an introduction to (software) transactional memory
an introduction to concurrent programming in C11/C++11, with pointers to more resources
the specifications of the transactional memory you have to implement, i.e. both:
- sufficient properties for a transactional memory to be deemed correct
- a thorough description of the transactional memory interface
practical informations, including:
- how to test your implementation on your local machine and on the evaluation server
- how your submission will be graded
- rules for (optionally) using 3rd-party libraries and collaboration (although the project is individual)

This repository provides:

examples of how to use synchronization primitives (in sync-examples/)
a reference implementation (in reference/)
a "skeleton" implementation (in template/)
- this template is written in C11
- feel free to overwrite it completely if you prefer to use C++ (in this case include <tm.hpp> instead of <tm.h>)
the program that will test your implementation (in grading/)
- the same program will be used on the evaluation server (although possibly with a different seed)
- you can use it to test/debug your implementation on your local machine (see the description)
a tool to submit your implementation (in submit.py)
- you should have received by mail a secret unique user identifier (UUID)
- see the description for more information
