From Sampa
Sampa is a collection of research projects aimed at developing SAfe MultiProcessing Architectures to address the concurrency challenge. We are part of the Computer Science and Engineering Department at the University of Washington.
Our goal is to improve the programmability and reliability of multiprocessor and multicore systems. The nature of the concurrency challenge is inter-disciplinary and so are we. Our projects include innovation in architecture, operating systems, compilers and programming languages.
