Bibliographic Details
Title: Proving Monitors.
Authors: Howard, John H.1, Gaines, R. S.
Source: Communications of the ACM. May76, Vol. 19 Issue 5, p273-279. 7p.
Subjects: Object monitors (Computer software), Computer engineering, Production scheduling, Computer monitors, Computer terminals, Information display systems
Abstract: Interesting scheduling and sequential properties of monitors can be proved by using state variables which record the monitors' history and by defining extended proof rules for their wait and signal operations. These two techniques are defined, discussed, and applied to examples to prove properties such as freedom from indefinitely repeated overtaking or unnecessary wailing, upper bounds on queue lengths, and historical behavior.
