On the Performance of Software Transactional Memory

Aleksandar Dragojevic

The recent proliferation of multi-core processors has moved concurrent programming into mainstream by forcing increasingly more programmers to write parallel code. Using traditional concurrency techniques, such as locking, is notoriously difficult and has ...

How to Allocate Tasks Asynchronously

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh

Asynchronous task allocation is a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which p asynchronous processes must execute a set of m tasks. Also known as write-all or do-all, this problem been studied extensively, both independently and as a key buildi ...

Encoding and decoding of generalized Reed-Solomon codes using parallel processing techniques

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi

A system, computer program, and/or method for encoding data that can correct r/2 errors. The original symbols are transformed using a Fourier transform of length p. Generator polynomials are used to encode the p blocks separately, and an inverse Fourier tr ...

Concurrent Tries with Efficient Non-Blocking Snapshots

Martin Odersky, Aleksandar Prokopec

We describe a non-blocking concurrent hash trie based on shared-memory single-word compare-and-swap instructions. The hash trie supports standard mutable lock-free operations such as insertion, removal, lookup and their conditional variants. To ensure spac ...

Democratizing Transactional Programming

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

The Transaction abstraction is arguably one of the most appealing middleware paradigms. It lies typically between the programmer of a concurrent or distributed application on the one hand, and the operating system with the underlying network on the other h ...

Speculative Linearizability

Rachid Guerraoui, Viktor Kuncak, Giuliano Losa

Linearizability is a key design methodology for reasoning about implementations of concurrent abstract data types in both shared memory and message passing systems. It provides the illusion that operations execute sequentially and fault-free, despite the a ...

Transaction Polymorphism

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

Concurrent implementations of abstract types usually rely on lock-free primitives or locks and are highly tuned to support a finite set of efficient operations. However, it is very hard to extend such types for specific needs by adding new operations. The ...

Laws of Order: Expensive Synchronization in Concurrent Algorithms Cannot be Eliminated

Rachid Guerraoui, Hagit Albo Attiya

Building correct and efﬁcient concurrent algorithms is known to be a difﬁcult problem of fundamental importance. To achieve ef- ﬁciency, designers try to remove unnecessary and costly synchro- nization. However, not only is this manual trial-and-error proc ...

A Data-oriented Transaction Execution Engine and Supporting Tools

Anastasia Ailamaki, Miguel Sérgio De Oliveira Branco, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Pinar Tözün, Ippokratis Pandis, Danica Porobic, Dimitrios Karampinas

Conventional OLTP systems assign each transaction to a worker thread and that thread accesses data, depending on what the transaction dictates. This thread-to-transaction work assignment policy leads to unpredictable accesses. The unpredictability forces e ...
