Abstract. Transactional memory systems trade ease of programming with runtime performance losses in handling transactions. This paper focuses on starvation effects that show up in ...
Hardware transactional memory should support unbounded transactions: transactions of arbitrary size and duration. We describe a hardware implementation of unbounded transactional ...
