Dependence-aware transactional memory for increased concurrency
—Transactional memory (TM) is a promising paradigm for helping programmers take advantage of emerging multicore platforms. Though they perform well under low contention, hardware...

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...

Transactional predication: high-performance concurrent sets and maps for STM
Concurrent collection classes are widely used in multi-threaded programming, but they provide atomicity only for a fixed set of operations. Software transactional memory (STM) pr...

Reliability mechanisms for file systems using non-volatile memory as a metadata store
Portable systems such as cell phones and portable media players commonly use non-volatile RAM (NVRAM) to hold all of their data and metadata, and larger systems can store metadata...

A speculation-friendly binary search tree
We introduce the first binary search tree algorithm designed for speculative executions. Prior to this work, tree structures were mainly designed for their pessimistic (non-specu...
