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 ...
This paper presents the design and implementation of a transaction manager embedded in a log-structured file system [11]. Measurements show that transaction support on a log-stru...
Memory transactions, similar to database transactions, allow a programmer to focus on the logic of their program and let the system ensure that transactions are atomic and isolate...

Abstract. Delimited continuations are the meanings of delimited evaluation contexts in programming languages. We show they offer a uniform view of many scenarios that arise in sys...
Achieving the best possible cost performance for a system is often the goal of the manager of that system. This is true for large systems (such as an entire railroad system) as we...
