I don't know of anything that exists. There is an upcoming book that may help:
Java Concurrency in Practice, by Brian Goetz, Tim Peierls, Joshua Bloch, Joseph Bowbeer, David Holmes, and Doug Lea (Addison-Wesley 2006). I have had assistance from some of the authors, but don't know if it introduces the concepts from the research paper. Estimated publication is February. However, you might get something from Scott Meyer's analysis of the concurrency issues surrounding the double-checked locking algorithm: http://www.aristeia.com/Papers/DDJ_Jul_Aug_2004_revised.pdf Thursday, October 13, 2005, 8:36:21 AM, Michael Hudson wrote: > Bruce Eckel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: >> Not only are there significant new library components in >> java.util.concurrent in J2SE5, but perhaps more important is the new >> memory model that deals with issues that are (especially) revealed in >> multiprocessor environments.
