    The authors have shown that there exist nontrivial shared data objects with pseudo read-modify-write (PRMW) operations that can be implemented from atomic registers in a bounded, wait-free manner. In particular, the authors have presented an implementation that can be generalized to implement any shared data object that can either be read, written, or modified by an associative, commutative PRMW operation. The implementation is polynomial in both space and time.
