Improving Memory Subsystem Performance Using ViVA: Virtual Vector Architecture
The disparity between microprocessor clock frequencies and memory latency is a primary reason why many demanding applications run well below peak achievable performance. Software c...

Transactional Mutex Locks
Mutual exclusion locks limit concurrency but offer low latency. Software transactional memory (STM) typically has higher latency, but scales well. In this paper we propose transac...

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...
