An integrated hardware-software approach to flexible transactional memory
There has been considerable recent interest in the support of transactional memory (TM) in both hardware and software. We present an intermediate approach, in which hardware is us...

Impact of early abort mechanisms on lock-based software transactional memory
Software transactional memory (STM) is an emerging concurrency control mechanism for shared memory accesses. Early abort is one of the important techniques to improve the executio...

EazyHTM: eager-lazy hardware transactional memory
Transactional Memory aims to provide a programming model that makes parallel programming easier. Hardware implementations of transactional memory (HTM) suffer from fewer overhead...
