The potential for variable-granularity access tracking for optimistic parallelism
Support for optimistic parallelism such as thread-level speculation (TLS) and transactional memory (TM) has been proposed to ease the task of parallelizing software to exploit the...

Fastpath Speculative Parallelization
Abstract. We describe Fastpath, a system for speculative parallelization of sequential programs on conventional multicore processors. Our system distinguishes between the lead thre...

Feedback-directed barrier optimization in a strongly isolated STM
Speed improvements in today's processors have largely been delivered in the form of multiple cores, increasing the importance of ions that ease parallel programming. Software...

A speculation-friendly binary search tree
We introduce the first binary search tree algorithm designed for speculative executions. Prior to this work, tree structures were mainly designed for their pessimistic (non-specu...
