- Introducing System.Transactions in the Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 (EXE)
- Developers on the Microsoft Windows platform traditionally choose between two transactional programming models: explicit transaction management or declarative transaction flow and management. Version 2.0 of the .NET Framework introduces a new transactional programming model available in the System.Transactions namespace. The new model allows developers to easily write transactional code with...

- A Performance-Oriented Data Parallel Virtual Machine for GPUs
- Existing GPU programming interfaces require that applications employ a graphics-centric programming model exported by a device driver tuned for real-time graphics and games. This programming model impedes development of non-graphics applications by hiding hardware resources behind its graphics-oriented interface. This paper presents a virtual machine abstraction for GPUs that provides...

- Leveraging Component-Oriented Programming With Attribute-Oriented Programming
- Component-oriented programming has achieved wide acceptance in the domain of software engineering by improving productivity, reusability and composition. This success has also encouraged the emergence of a plethora of component models. Nevertheless, even if the abstract models of existing component models are quite similar; their programming models can differ a...

- A Statically Verifiable Programming Model for Concurrent Object-Oriented Programs
- Reasoning about multithreaded object-oriented programs is difficult, due to the non-local nature of object aliasing, data races, and deadlocks. This paper proposes a programming model that prevents data races and deadlocks, and supports local reasoning in the presence of object aliasing and concurrency. The programming model builds on the multithreading...
