Commodity symmetric multiprocessors (SMPs), though originally intended for transaction processing, because of their availability, are now used for numerical analysis applications ...
We have developed a transaction-based approach to distributed shared memory(DSM) that supports object caching and generates path expression prefetches. A path expression specifies...
— 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...
Software Transactional Memory (STM) is a generic synchronization construct that enables automatic conversion of correct sequential objects into correct nonblocking concurrent obje...
