Optimizing transactions for captured memory
In this paper, we identify transaction-local memory as a major source of overhead from compiler instrumentation in software transactional memory (STM). Transaction-local memory is...

Steal-on-Abort: Improving Transactional Memory Performance through Dynamic Transaction Reordering
Abstract. In transactional memory, aborted transactions reduce performance, and waste computing resources. Ideally, concurrent execution of transactions should be optimally ordered...

Reducing Memory Ordering Overheads in Software Transactional Memory
—Most research into high-performance software transactional memory (STM) assumes that transactions will run on a processor with a relatively strict memory model, such as Total St...

On the (dis)similarity of transactional memory workloads
— Programming to exploit the resources in a multicore system remains a major obstacle for both computer and software engineers. Transactional memory offers an attractive alternat...
