Perspectives on Transactional Memory
Abstract. We examine the role of transactional memory from two perspectives: that of a programming language with atomic actions and that of implementations of the language. We argu...

STM versus lock-based systems: an energy consumption perspective
The shift towards multicore processors and the well-known drawbacks imposed by lock-based synchronization have forced researchers to devise new alternatives for building concurren...

Consistent Main-Memory Database Federations under Deferred Disk Writes
Current cluster architectures provide the ideal environment to run federations of main-memory database systems (FMMDBs). In FMMDBs, data resides in the main memory of the federati...

An efficient transactional memory algorithm for computing minimum spanning forest of sparse graphs
Due to power wall, memory wall, and ILP wall, we are facing the end of ever increasing single-threaded performance. For this reason, multicore and manycore processors are arising ...

Stretching transactional memory
Transactional memory (TM) is an appealing abstraction for programming multi-core systems. Potential target applications for TM, such as business software and video games, are like...
