Improving the Performance of Read-Only Transactions Through Speculation
A read-only transaction (ROT) does not modify any data. The main issues regarding processing ROTs are correctness, data currency and performance. Two-phase Locking (2PL) protocol i...

DynaTune: Circuit-level optimization for timing speculation considering dynamic path behavior
Traditional circuit design focuses on optimizing the static critical paths no matter how infrequently these paths are exercised dynamically. Circuit optimization is then tuned to ...
