Abstract

Five pitfalls or potential mistakes in memory consistency modelling are identified. Each pitfall can have dramatic impact on our ability to write correct and efficient programs, to determine the algorithmic capabilities or limitations of particular architectures, and to compare various systems. These potential problems are highlighted by illustrating each pitfall with examples from known consistency model definitions.
