Single global lock semantics in a weakly atomic STM
As memory transactions have been proposed as a language-level replacement for locks, there is growing need for well-defined semantics. In contrast to database transactions, transa...

Tashkent+: memory-aware load balancing and update filtering in replicated databases
We present a memory-aware load balancing (MALB) technique to dispatch transactions to replicas in a replicated database. Our MALB algorithm exploits knowledge of the working sets ...
