SoC-TM: integrated HW/SW support for transactional memory programming on embedded MPSoCs
Two overriding concerns in the development of embedded MPSoCs are ease of programming and hardware complexity. In this paper we present SoC-TM, an integrated HW/SW solution for tr...

TxLinux and MetaTM: transactional memory and the operating system
TxLinux is the first operating system to use hardware transactional memory (HTM) as a synchronization primitive, and the first to manage HTM in the scheduler. TxLinux, which is a ...

On bounding response times under software transactional memory in distributed multiprocessor real-time systems
We consider multiprocessor distributed real-time systems where concurrency control is managed using software transactional memory (or STM). For such a system, we propose an algori...
