Abstract. This paper explores the feasibility of re-expressing concurrent algorithms with explicit locks in terms of lock free code written using Haskell's implementation of software transactional memory. Experimental results are presented which show that for multi-processor systems the simpler lock free implementations offer superior performance when compared to their corresponding lock based implementations.
