Composable memory transactions
Writing concurrent programs is notoriously difficult, and is of increasing practical importance. A particular source of concern is n correctly-implemented concurrency abstraction...

Brief announcement: view transactions: transactional model with relaxed consistency checks
We present view transactions, a model for relaxed consistency checks in software transactional memory (STM). View transactions always operate on a consistent snapshot of memory bu...

Subtleties of Transactional Memory Atomicity Semantics
Abstract-- Transactional memory has great potential for simplifying multithreaded programming by allowing programmers to specify regions of the program that must appear to execute ...

A Compact Transactional Memory Multiprocessor System on FPGA
In this paper we present a rapid prototyping platform on a single Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with support for software transactional memory. The system is composed only b...

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...
