Transactional memory (TM) eliminates many problems associated with lock-based synchronization. Over recent years, much progress has been made in software and hardware implementati...

The shift towards multicore processors and the well-known drawbacks imposed by lock-based synchronization have forced researchers to devise new alternatives for building concurren...

We propose a dependent type theory that integrates programming, specifications, and reasoning about higher-order concurrent programs with shared transactional memory. The design ...

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 ...
Traditional transactional memory systems suffer from overly conservative conflict detection, yielding so-called false conflicts, because they are based on fine-grained, low-level ...
