Optimizing transactions for captured memory
In this paper, we identify transaction-local memory as a major source of overhead from compiler instrumentation in software transactional memory (STM). Transaction-local memory is...

Intermediate checkpointing with conflicting access prediction in transactional memory systems
Transactional memory systems promise to reduce the burden of exposing thread-level parallelism in programs by relieving programmers from analyzing complex inter-thread dependences...

Ordering-Based Semantics for Software Transactional Memory
It has been widely suggested that memory transactions should behave as if they acquired and released a single global lock. Unfortunately, this behavior can be expensive to achieve...

Implementation and Use of Transactional Memory with Dynamic Separation
Abstract. We introduce the design and implementation of dynamic separation (DS) as a programming discipline for using transactional memory. Our approach is based on the programmer ...
