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...

Applying transactional memory to concurrency bugs
Multithreaded programs often suffer from synchronization bugs such as atomicity violations and deadlocks. These bugs arise from complicated locking strategies and ad hoc synchroni...

SoC-TM: integrated HW/SW support for transactional memory programming on embedded MPSoCs
Two overriding concerns in the development of embedded MPSoCs are ease of programming and hardware complexity. In this paper we present SoC-TM, an integrated HW/SW solution for tr...

Employing Transactional Memory and Helper Threads to Speedup Dijkstra's Algorithm
In this paper we work on the parallelization of the inherently serial Dijkstra's algorithm on modern multicore platforms. Dijkstra's algorithm is a greedy algorithm that ...
