Transactional memory with strong atomicity using off-the-shelf memory protection hardware
This paper introduces a new way to provide strong atomicity in an implementation of transactional memory. Strong atomicity lets us offer clear semantics to programs, even if they ...

Why STM can be more than a research toy
Software Transactional Memory (STM) promises to simplify concurrent programming without requiring specific hardware support. Yet, STM’s credibility lies on the extent to which ...

Exploiting distributed version concurrency in a transactional memory cluster
We investigate a transactional memory runtime system providing scaling and strong consistency for generic C++ and SQL applications on commodity clusters. We introduce a novel page...

Committing conflicting transactions in an STM
Dependence-aware transactional memory (DATM) is a recently proposed model for increasing concurrency of memory transactions without complicating their interface. DATM manages depe...

Consistency in hindsight: A fully decentralized STM algorithm
Abstract--Software transactional memory (STM) algorithms often rely on centralized components to achieve atomicity, isolation and consistency. In a distributed setting, centralized...
