A Scalable Lock-Free Universal Construction with Best Effort Transactional Hardware
The imminent arrival of best-effort transactional hardware has spurred new interest in the construction of nonblocking data structures, such as those that require atomic updates to...

Model checking transactional memories
Model checking software transactional memories (STMs) is difficult because of the unbounded number, length, and delay of concurrent transactions and the unbounded size of the memo...

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...

Improving Performance by Reducing Aborts in Hardware Transactional Memory
The optimistic nature of Transactional Memory (TM) systems can lead to the concurrent execution of transactions that are later found to conflict. Conflicts degrade scalability, a...

Maximum benefit from a minimal HTM
A minimal, bounded hardware transactional memory implementation significantly improves synchronization performance when used in an operating system kernel. We add HTM to Linux 2.4...
