Brief announcement: view transactions: transactional model with relaxed consistency checks
We present view transactions, a model for relaxed consistency checks in software transactional memory (STM). View transactions always operate on a consistent snapshot of memory bu...

Transactional predication: high-performance concurrent sets and maps for STM
Concurrent collection classes are widely used in multi-threaded programming, but they provide atomicity only for a fixed set of operations. Software transactional memory (STM) pr...

Lightweight, robust adaptivity for software transactional memory
When a program uses Software Transactional Memory (STM) to synchronize accesses to shared memory, the performance often depends on which STM implementation is used. Implementation...

McRT-STM: a high performance software transactional memory system for a multi-core runtime
Applications need to become more concurrent to take advantage of the increased computational power provided by chip level multiprocessing. Programmers have traditionally managed t...

Systems Architectures for Transactional Network Interface
Systems such as software transactional memory and some exception handling techniques use transactions. However, a typical limitation of such systems is that they do not allow syst...

Scalable Techniques for Transparent Privatization in Software Transactional Memory
—We address the recently recognized privatization problem in software transactional memory (STM) runtimes, and introduce the notion of partially visible reads (PVRs) to heuristic...

On bounding response times under software transactional memory in distributed multiprocessor real-time systems
We consider multiprocessor distributed real-time systems where concurrency control is managed using software transactional memory (or STM). For such a system, we propose an algori...

Software transactional memory for multicore embedded systems
Embedded systems, like general-purpose systems, can benefit from parallel execution on a symmetric multicore platform. Unfortunately, concurrency issues present in general-purpos...

Response time analysis of software transactional memory-based distributed real-time systems
We consider distributed real-time systems where concurrency control is managed using software transactional memory. For such a method we propose an algorithm to compute an upper b...
