Transactional memory for smalltalk
Concurrency control in Smalltalk is based on locks and is therefore notoriously difficult to use. Even though some implementations provide high-level constructs, these add complexi...

An integrated hardware-software approach to flexible transactional memory
There has been considerable recent interest in the support of transactional memory (TM) in both hardware and software. We present an intermediate approach, in which hardware is us...

Flexible Decoupled Transactional Memory Support
A high-concurrency transactional memory (TM) implementation needs to track concurrent accesses, buffer speculative updates, and manage conflicts. We present a system, FlexTM (FLE...

Dynamically Filtering Thread-Local Variables in Lazy-Lazy Hardware Transactional Memory
Abstract--Transactional Memory (TM) is an emerging technology which promises to make parallel programming easier. However, to be efficient, underlying TM system should protect only...

The semantics of progress in lock-based transactional memory
Transactional memory (TM) is a promising paradigm for concurrent programming. Whereas the number of TM implementations is growing, however, little research has been conducted to p...
