Hello,


Why have i not spook about sequential consistency and memory
models ?


Cause that is not a difficult subject for me...

On strong memory models like the x86 architecture , you have
to take care of the following:

There is one important non-guarantee listed in the x86 spec:

"Loads may be reordered with older stores to different locations"


So i have taking care of that and i have imnplemented my parallel 
projects taking care of sequential consistency on strong memory model 
like x86.

But on weaker memory models that's not so difficult for me,
but i have not decided to port my parallel projects and scalable
synchronization algorithms on other memory models than x86 architecture.



Thank you for your attention.


Amine Moulay Ramdane.
