Hello..


Scalable counting networks for Delphi and FreePascal..


Author: Amine Moulay Ramdane

Description:


Counting networks are truly scalable and are a special type of balancer
networks which count.

They were first introduced by Aspnes, Herlihy, and Shavit in the
following paper:

James Aspnes, Maurice Herlihy, and Nir Shavit. 1994. Counting networks.
J. ACM 41, 5 (September 1994), 1020-1048.

This project's goal is to evalute the scalability of counting networks
in modern SMPs.

This is a port to Delphi and FreePascal of this project that implement
scalable counting networks:

I have added to the above project a function called: get_tl_idx(), to
expose a thread local called tl_idx to be more useful.
