Testing Database Transaction Concurrency
Database application programs are often designed to be executed concurrently by many clients. By grouping related database queries into transactions, DBMS systems can guarantee th...

Optimizing memory transactions
Atomic blocks allow programmers to delimit sections of code as ‘atomic’, leaving the language’s implementation to enforce atomicity. Existing work has shown how to implement...

Using Hardware Memory Protection to Build a High-Performance, Strongly-Atomic Hybrid Transactional Memory
We demonstrate how fine-grained memory protection can be used in support of transactional memory systems: first showing how a software transactional memory system (STM) can be m...

Reducing Sub-transaction Aborts and Blocking Time Within Atomic Commit Protocols
Composed Web service transactions executed in distributed networks often require an atomic execution. Guaranteeing atomicity in mobile networks involves a lot more challenges than ...

Towards type-theoretic semantics for transactional concurrency
We propose a dependent type theory that integrates programming, specifications, and reasoning about higher-order concurrent programs with shared transactional memory. The design ...
