Dynamic analysis of the relay cache-coherence protocol for distributed transactional memory
Transactional memory is an alternative programming model for managing contention in accessing shared in-memory data objects. Distributed transactional memory (TM) promises to alle...

Hardware Support for Relaxed Concurrency Control in Transactional Memory
Today's transactional memory systems implement the two-phase-locking (2PL) algorithm which aborts transactions every time a conflict happens. 2PL is a simple algorithm that pr...

Modeling the Run-time Behavior of Transactional Memory
In this paper, we develop a queuing theory based analytical model to evaluate the performance of transactional memory. Based on the statistical characteristics observed on actual e...

Unbounded page-based transactional memory
Exploiting thread level parallelism is paramount in the multi-core era. Transactions enable programmers to expose such parallelism by greatly simplifying the multi-threaded progra...

Brief announcement: view transactions: transactional model with relaxed consistency checks
We present view transactions, a model for relaxed consistency checks in software transactional memory (STM). View transactions always operate on a consistent snapshot of memory bu...
