The C# Memory Model in Theory

The C# memory model makes and shows the code patterns that motivate the guarantees; the second part will detail how the guarantees are achieved on different hardware architectures in the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.

One source of complexity in multithreaded programming is that the compiler and the hardware can subtly transform a program’s memory operations in ways that don’t affect the single-threaded behavior, but might affect the multithreaded behavior.
