A real system evaluation of hardware atomicity for software speculation
In this paper we evaluate the atomic region compiler abstraction by incorporating it into a commercial system. We find that atomic regions are simple and intuitive to integrate i...

Transactional memory with strong atomicity using off-the-shelf memory protection hardware
This paper introduces a new way to provide strong atomicity in an implementation of transactional memory. Strong atomicity lets us offer clear semantics to programs, even if they ...

Hardware atomicity for reliable software speculation
Speculative compiler optimizations are effective in improving both single-thread performance and reducing power consumption, but their implementation introduces significant compl...

Fast analysis of molecular dynamics trajectories with graphics processing units - Radial distribution function histogramming
The calculation of radial distribution functions (RDFs) from molecular dynamics trajectory data is a common and computationally expensive analysis task. The rate limiting step in ...

Kivati: Fast Detection and Prevention of Atomicity Violations
Bugs in concurrent programs are extremely difficult to find and fix during testing. In this paper, we propose Kivati, which can efficiently detect and prevent atomicity violat...
