  abstract = {Modern computers are built upon multi-core architectures.
              Achieving peak performance on these architectures is hard and may
              require a substantial programming effort. The synchronisation of
              many processes racing to access a common resource (the shared
              memory) has been a fundamental problem on parallel computing for
              years, and many solutions have been proposed to address this
              issue. Non-blocking synchronisation and transactional primitives
              have been envisioned as a way to reduce memory wall problem.
              Despite sometimes effective (and exhibiting a great momentum in
              the research community), they are only one facet of the problem,
              as their exploitation still requires non-trivial programming
              skills. With non-blocking philosophy in mind, we propose
              high-level programming patterns that will relieve the programmer
              from worrying about low-level details such as synchronisation of
              racing processes as well as those fine tunings needed to improve
              the overall performance, like proper (distributed) dynamic memory
              allocation and effective exploitation of the memory hierarchy.},
