2.10 Consider the following program:
int x = 0, y = 0;
co x = x + 1; x = x + 2;
// x = x + 2; y = y = x;
ос
(a) Suppose each assignment statement is implemented by a single machine
instruction and hence is atomic. How many possible histories are there? What
are the possible final values of x and y?
(b) Suppose each assignment statement is implemented by three atomic actions
that load a register, add or subtract a value from that register, then store the result.
How many possible histories are there now? What are the possible final values of
x and y?
