ABSTRACT:
A method is described for dynamic stitching of a new module of executable code in a parallel processing environment, where access to a data object is shared by the new module and another module previously loaded. A new data object is created for shared access by the new module and by the other module; a data freshness indicator is updated in accordance therewith. A pointer value for the data pointer associated with the other module is modified, thereby terminating reference to an old data object previously accessed and substituting reference to the new data object. A second data freshness indicator is updated in accordance with access by the other module to the new data object. The old data object is deleted when a comparison between freshness indicators shows that access to the old data object is no longer required.
