Transactional Memory: Architectural Support for Lock-Free Data Structures
A shared data structure is lock-free if its operations do not require mutual exclusion. If one process is interrupted in the middle of an operation, other processes will not be pr...

Real-Time Synchronization on Multiprocessors: To Block or Not to Block, to Suspend or Spin?
In the domain of multiprocessor real-time systems, there has been a wealth of recent work on scheduling, but relatively little work on the equally-important topic of synchronizati...

A Performance Evaluation of Lock-Free Synchronization Protocols
In this paper, we investigate the practical performance of lock-free techniques that provide synchronization on shared-memory multiprocessors. Our goal is to provide a technique t...
