Dynamic analysis of the relay cache-coherence protocol for distributed transactional memory
Transactional memory is an alternative programming model for managing contention in accessing shared in-memory data objects. Distributed transactional memory (TM) promises to alle...

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 ...

Transactions as the Foundation of a Memory Consistency Model
We argue that traditional synchronization objects, such as locks, conditions, and atomic/volatile variables, should be defined in terms of transactions, rather than the other way ...

Transactions with isolation and cooperation
We present the TIC (Transactions with Isolation and Cooperation) model for concurrent programming. TIC adds to standard transactional memory the ability for a transaction to obser...

Implementation and Use of Transactional Memory with Dynamic Separation
Abstract. We introduce the design and implementation of dynamic separation (DS) as a programming discipline for using transactional memory. Our approach is based on the programmer ...
