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...

Committing conflicting transactions in an STM
Dependence-aware transactional memory (DATM) is a recently proposed model for increasing concurrency of memory transactions without complicating their interface. DATM manages depe...

The OpenTM Transactional Application Programming Interface
Transactional Memory (TM) simplifies parallel programming by supporting atomic and isolated execution of user-identified tasks. To date, TM programming has required the use of l...

Hardware Support for Relaxed Concurrency Control in Transactional Memory
Today's transactional memory systems implement the two-phase-locking (2PL) algorithm which aborts transactions every time a conflict happens. 2PL is a simple algorithm that pr...

Ordering-Based Semantics for Software Transactional Memory
It has been widely suggested that memory transactions should behave as if they acquired and released a single global lock. Unfortunately, this behavior can be expensive to achieve...
