That is correct, just that it's 40 years late. Right now everything is
indicating that things are moving *away* from shared memory.

I'm talking at the ASM level (not the language model level) and as opposed

Am I wrong in assuming that most languages use user mode (not kernel mode)
shared memory for inter thread communication?
