Many people have proposed adding transactions, or atomic blocks, to type-safe high-level programming languages. However, researchers have not considered the semantics of transacti...
“Is transactional memory useful?” is the question that cannot be answered until we provide substantial applications that can evaluate its capabilities. While existing TM appli...
