Consistent Main-Memory Database Federations under Deferred Disk Writes
Current cluster architectures provide the ideal environment to run federations of main-memory database systems (FMMDBs). In FMMDBs, data resides in the main memory of the federati...

Perspectives on Transactional Memory
Abstract. We examine the role of transactional memory from two perspectives: that of a programming language with atomic actions and that of implementations of the language. We argu...

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...

On the power of hardware transactional memory to simplify memory management
Dynamic memory management is a significant source of complexity in the design and implementation of practical concurrent data structures. We study how hardware transactional memo...

Transactional memory with strong atomicity using off-the-shelf memory protection hardware
This paper introduces a new way to provide strong atomicity in an implementation of transactional memory. Strong atomicity lets us offer clear semantics to programs, even if they ...
