An OS-based alternative to full hardware coherence on tiled CMPs
The interconnect mechanisms (shared bus or crossbar) used in current chip-multiprocessors (CMPs) are expected to become a bottleneck that prevents these architectures from scaling...

NOrec: streamlining STM by abolishing ownership records
Drawing inspiration from several previous projects, we present an ownership-record-free software transactional memory (STM) system that combines extremely low overhead with unusua...
