Due to the advent of multi-core processors and the consequent need for better concurrent programming abstractions, new synchronization paradigms have emerged. A promising one, kno...

We report on our experience with the hardware transactional memory (HTM) feature of two pre-production revisions of a new commercial multicore processor. Our experience includes a...
Affordable transparent clustering solutions to scale non-HPC applications on commodity clusters (such as Terracotta) are emerging for Java Virtual Machines (JVMs). Working in this ...
Synchronization in distributed systems is expensive because, in general, threads must stall to obtain a lock or to operate on volatile data. Transactional memory, on the other hand...
Abstract. Developing efficient distributed applications while managing complexity can be challenging. Managing network latency is a key challenge for distributed applications. We ...
