Inherent limitations on disjoint-access parallel implementations of transactional memory
Transactional memory (TM) is a promising approach for designing concurrent data structures, and it is essential to develop better understanding of the formal properties that can b...

Semantics of transactional memory and automatic mutual exclusion
Software Transactional Memory (STM) is an attractive basis for the development of language features for concurrent programming. However, the semantics of these features can be del...

A Case for Deconstructing Hardware Transactional Memory Systems
Major hardware and software vendors are curious about transactional memory (TM), but are understandably cautious about committing to hardware changes. Our thesis is that deconstru...

Implementing and Evaluating a Model Checker for Transactional Memory Systems
Abstract—Transactional Memory (TM) is a promising technique that addresses the difficulty of parallel programming. Since TM takes responsibility for all concurrency control, TM ...
