Software transactional memory (STM) is a promising technique for controlling concurrency in modern multi-processor architectures. STM aims to be more scalable than explicit coarse...
The paper studies the impact of several lock manager designs on the overhead imposed to a persistent programming language by automated object locking. Our study reveals that a loc...
Advanced Synchronization Facility (ASF) is an AMD64 hardware extension for lock-free data structures and transactional memory. It provides a speculative region that atomically exec...
