Software transactional memory for dynamic-sized data structures
We propose a new form of software transactional memory (STM) designed to support dynamic-sized data structures, and we describe a novel non-blocking implementation. The non-blocki...

TxLinux and MetaTM: transactional memory and the operating system
TxLinux is the first operating system to use hardware transactional memory (HTM) as a synchronization primitive, and the first to manage HTM in the scheduler. TxLinux, which is a ...

Using Hardware Memory Protection to Build a High-Performance, Strongly-Atomic Hybrid Transactional Memory
We demonstrate how fine-grained memory protection can be used in support of transactional memory systems: first showing how a software transactional memory system (STM) can be m...
