Abstract

[This chapter delves into memory consistency models (a.k.a. memory models) that define the behavior of shared memory systems for programmers and implementors. These models define correctness so that programmers know what to expect and implementors know what to provide. We first motivate the need to define memory behavior (Section 3.1), say what a memory consistency model should do (Section 3.2), and compare and contrast consistency and coherence (Section 3.3).]
