We want to report on recent and ongoing work into the denotational semantics of shared-state concurrent programming languages with Brookes-style trace semantics. Most of the talk would cover our trace semantics for the Release/Acquire (RA) memory model, a fragment of the C/C++ standard. Developing this semantics required us to re-think the interpretation of Brookes trace-sets, moving away from interrupted executions and towards a game-like/rely-guarantee-like intuition about the interaction of the program with its environment.
