In this paper we present a new form of revocable lock that streamlines the construction of higher level concurrency abstractions such as atomic multi-word heap updates. The key id...
We propose in this paper an algorithm for off-line selection of the contents of on-chip memories. The algorithm supports two types of on-chip memories, namely locked caches and sc...
Based on loosely coupled services in an XML engine, we describe how to realize fine-grained lock protocols, which can guarantee transaction isolation for applications using differ...
With the recent success of Monte-Carlo tree search algorithms in Go and other games, and the increasing number of cores in standard CPUs, the efficient parallelization of the sear...
TL2 and similar STM algorithms deliver high scalability based on write-locking and invisible readers. In fact, no modern STM design locks to read along its common execution path b...
