Polymorphic Contention Management
Abstract. In software transactional memory (STM) systems, a contention manager resolves conflicts among transactions accessing the same memory locations. Whereas atomicity and ser...

Brief announcement: on enhancing concurrency in distributed transactional memory
Distributed transactional memory (TM) models based on globally-consistent contention management policies may abort many transactions that could potentially commit without violatin...

Flexible Decoupled Transactional Memory Support
A high-concurrency transactional memory (TM) implementation needs to track concurrent accesses, buffer speculative updates, and manage conflicts. We present a system, FlexTM (FLE...
