Beschreibung:
<jats:p>We extend Cyclone, a type-safe polymorphic language at the C level of abstraction, with threads and locks. Data races can violate type safety in Cyclone. An extended type system statically guarantees their absence by enforcing that thread-shared data is protected via locking and that thread-local data does not escape the thread that creates it. The extensions interact smoothly with parametric polymorphism and region-based memory management. We present a formal abstract machine that models the need to prevent races, a polymorphic type system for the machine that supports thread-local data, and a corresponding type-safety result.</jats:p>
