Transactional memory (TM) is an appealing abstraction for programming multi-core systems. Potential target applications for TM, such as business software and video games, are likely to involve complex data structures and large transactions, requiring speci ...
This paper studies obstruction-free software transactional memory systems (OFTMs). These systems are appealing, for they combine the atomicity property of transactions with a liveness property that ensures the commitment of every transaction that eventuall ...

Software transactional memory (STM) is a promising technique for writing concurrent programs. So far, most STM approaches have been experimentally evaluated with small-scale microbenchmarks. In this paper, we present several surprising results from impleme ...

Transactional memory (TM) has shown potential to simplify the task of writing concurrent programs. However, the semantics of interactions between transactions managed by a TM and non-transactional operations, while widely studied, lacks a clear formal spec ...

Software transactional memory (STM) is a promising technique for controlling concurrency in modern multi-processor architectures. STM aims to be more scalable than explicit coarse-grained locking and easier to use than fine-grained locking. However, STM im ...

Transactional memory (TM) is a promising paradigm for concurrent programming. Whereas the number of TM implementations is growing, however, little research has been conducted to precisely define TM semantics, especially their progress guarantees. This pape ...

Transactional memory (TM) is perceived as an appealing alternative to critical sections for general purpose concurrent programming. Despite the large amount of recent work on TM implementations, however, very little effort has been devoted to precisely def ...
