The obstruction-free Dynamic Software Transactional Memory (DSTM) system of Herlihy et al. allows only one transaction at a time to acquire an object for writing. Should a second ...
Compared with lock-based synchronization techniques, Software Transactional Memory (STM) can significantly improve the programmability of multithreaded applications. Existing res...
Software Transactional Memories (STMs) are emerging as a highly attractive programming model, thanks to their ability to mask concurrency management issues to the overlying applic...

Software transactional memories (STMs) promise simple and efficient concurrent programming. Several correctness properties have been proposed for STMs. Based on a bounded conflict ...
In Software Transactional Memory (STM), contention management refers to the mechanisms used to ensure forward progress-to avoid livelock and starvation, and to promote throughput ...
