Operating Systems Should Provide Transactions
Operating systems can efficiently provide system transactions to user applications, in which user-level processes can execute a series of system calls atomically and in isolation ...

A Model of Dynamic Separation for Transactional Memory
Abstract. Dynamic separation is a new programming discipline for systems with transactional memory. We study it formally in the setting of a small calculus with transactions. We pr...

Hardware Support for Relaxed Concurrency Control in Transactional Memory
Today's transactional memory systems implement the two-phase-locking (2PL) algorithm which aborts transactions every time a conflict happens. 2PL is a simple algorithm that pr...

Verifying Correctness of Transactional Memories
—We show how to verify the correctness of transactional memory implementations with a model checker. We show how to specify transactional memory in terms of the admissible interc...
