Architectural Support for Fair Reader-Writer Locking
Abstract--Many shared-memory parallel systems use lockbased synchronization mechanisms to provide mutual exclusion or reader-writer access to memory locations. Software locks are i...

A compositional theory for STM Haskell
We address the problem of reasoning about Haskell programs that use Software Transactional Memory (STM). As a motivating example, we consider Haskell code for a concurrent non-det...

NOrec: streamlining STM by abolishing ownership records
Drawing inspiration from several previous projects, we present an ownership-record-free software transactional memory (STM) system that combines extremely low overhead with unusua...

NV-Heaps: making persistent objects fast and safe with next-generation, non-volatile memories
nt, user-defined objects present an attractive abstraction for working with non-volatile program state. However, the slow speed of persistent storage (i.e., disk) has restricted ...
