high NRE cost. Therefore, general purpose programmable processors using software to perform various functions become more attractive since programmability can simplify system devel...
We propose signature-accelerated transactional memory (SigTM), a hybrid TM system that reduces the overhead of software transactions. SigTM uses hardware signatures to track the r...
