Atomic updates: Difference between revisions

 

# get the current value of any bucket

 

----

# At whatever rate is convenient, display (by any means) the total value and, optionally, the individual values of each bucket.

 

The display task need not be explicit; use of e.g. a debugger or trace tool is acceptable provided it is simple to set up to provide the display.

The array of buckets is a protected object which controls access to its state. The task Equalize averages pairs of buckets. The task Mess_Up moves content of one bucket to another. The main task performs monitoring of the buckets state. Sample output:

=={{header|BBC BASIC}}==

{{works with|BBC BASIC for Windows}}

The BBC BASIC interpreter is single-threaded so the 'concurrent' tasks are implemented by timer events. In this context an 'atomic' update means one which takes place within a single BASIC statement, so it cannot be 'interrupted'. Two (or more) buckets can be updated atomically by making them RETURN parameters of a procedure.

This C# implementation uses a class to hold the buckets and data associated with them. The ThreadSafeBuckets class implements thread-stability, and ensures that two threads cannot operate on the same data at the same time. Additionally, the class uses a seperate mutex for each bucket, allowing multiple operations to occur at once if they do not alter the same buckets.

 

- The previous implementation tracked a "swapped" state - which seems a harder way to tackle the problem. You need to acquire the locks in the correct order, not swap i and j

 

using System; //Rand class

using System.Threading; //Thread, Mutex classes

=={{header|Clojure}}==

Function returning a new map containing altered values:

(let [{f-bal from t-bal to} m

f-bal (- f-bal amt)

(if (or (neg? f-bal) (neg? t-bal))

(throw (IllegalArgumentException. "Call results in negative balance."))

Since clojure data structures are immutable, atomic mutability occurs via a reference, in this case an atom:

Now for the test:

(let [{a-val a b-val b} m

diff (- a-val b-val)

This implements a more scalable version than most of the other languages, by using a lock per bucket instead of a single lock for the whole array.

Solution:

 

def cells = []

}

Thread.sleep(500)

 

Output:

So, at any given time, the current value map is either in the MVar or being examined or replaced by one thread, but not both. The IntMap held by the MVar is a pure immutable data structure (<code>adjust</code> returns a modified version), so there is no problem from that the ''display'' task puts the value back before it is done printing.

Another solution, using a Pipe as a "holding tank". Pipes are thread safe queues. This code just moves the values to and from the pipe to synchronize changes. The use of this class is the same as above, just change b:=B() to b:=C();
