Exploiting distributed version concurrency in a transactional memory cluster
We investigate a transactional memory runtime system providing scaling and strong consistency for generic C++ and SQL applications on commodity clusters. We introduce a novel page...

Simplifying concurrent algorithms by exploiting hardware transactional memory
We explore the potential of hardware transactional memory (HTM) to improve concurrent algorithms. We illustrate a number of use cases in which HTM enables significantly simpler c...

Early experiences on accelerating Dijkstra's algorithm using transactional memory
In this paper we use Dijkstra’s algorithm as a challenging, hard to parallelize paradigm to test the efficacy of several parallelization techniques in a multicore architecture....
