  • LOW-OVERHEAD DETECTION TECHNIQUES FOR SYNCHRONIZATION PROBLEMS IN PARALLEL AND CONCURRENT SOFTWARE
    Publication number: 20230004367
    Abstract: The techniques described herein may provide techniques to detect, categorize, and diagnose synchronization issues that provide improved performance and issue resolution. For example, in an embodiment, a method may comprise detecting occurrence of synchronization performance problems in software code, when at least some detected synchronization performance problems occur when a contention rate for software locks is low, determining a cause of the synchronization performance problems, and modifying the software code to remedy the cause of the synchronization performance problems so as to improve synchronization performance of the software code.
    Type: Application
