When a program uses Software Transactional Memory (STM) to synchronize accesses to shared memory, the performance often depends on which STM implementation is used. Implementation...
A static memory reference exhibits a unique property when its dynamic memory addresses are congruent with respect to some non-trivial modulus. Extraction of this congruence inform...

Software transactional memory (STM) guarantees that a transaction, consisting of a sequence of operations on the memory, appears to be executed atomically. In practice, it is impor...
The Cray MTA-2 system provides exceptional performance on a variety of sparse graph algorithms. Unfortunately, it was an extremely expensive platform. Cray is preparing an Eldorad...
