Memory models for open-nested transactions
Open nesting provides a loophole in the strict model of atomic transactions. Moss and Hosking suggested adapting open nesting for transactional memory, and Moss and a group at Sta...

Safe open-nested transactions through ownership
Researchers in transactional memory (TM) have proposed open nesting as a methodology for increasing the concurrency of transactional programs. The idea is to ignore "low-leve...
