Memory access operations play an essential role in the design of algorithms. In fact, the semantics of the data access operations (read, and write) will directly a(cid:11)ect the conditions under which a given algorithm will be correct when operating with a particular type of memory. In this paper we present a formalization of the concept of memory model which can be used to specify the behavior of a given class of memory. This model allows us to identify the system components a(cid:11)ecting the way memory access operations are performed. The paper also presents a mechanism to de(cid:12)ne memory types by way of restricting the set of permitted executions to those allowing a given type of observation.
