Good Programming in Transactional Memory
Abstract. In a multicore transactional memory (TM) system, concurrent execution threads interact and interfere with each other through shared memory. The less interference a progra...

Polymorphic Contention Management
Abstract. In software transactional memory (STM) systems, a contention manager resolves conflicts among transactions accessing the same memory locations. Whereas atomicity and ser...
