Abstract
This chapter is devoted to snapshot objects. Such an object can be seen as a store-collect object whose two operations are atomic. After having defined the concept of a snapshot object, this chapter presents wait-free implementations of it, which are based on atomic read/write registers only. This chapter introduces also the notion of an immediate snapshot object, which can be seen as the atomic counterpart of the fast store-collect object presented in the previous chapter.
