Reducing Memory Ordering Overheads in Software Transactional Memory
—Most research into high-performance software transactional memory (STM) assumes that transactions will run on a processor with a relatively strict memory model, such as Total St...

Transactional Memory: How to perform load adaption in a simple and distributed manner
We analyze and present different strategies to adapt the load in transactional memory systems based on contention. Our experimental results show a substantial overall improvement ...

Using Hardware Memory Protection to Build a High-Performance, Strongly-Atomic Hybrid Transactional Memory
We demonstrate how fine-grained memory protection can be used in support of transactional memory systems: first showing how a software transactional memory system (STM) can be m...

STM versus lock-based systems: an energy consumption perspective
The shift towards multicore processors and the well-known drawbacks imposed by lock-based synchronization have forced researchers to devise new alternatives for building concurren...
