Low overhead concurrency control for partitioned main memory databases
Database partitioning is a technique for improving the performance of distributed OLTP databases, since “single partition” transactions that access data on one partition do no...

Scheduling Issues in Optimistic Parallelization
Irregular applications, which rely on pointer-based data structures, are often difficult to parallelize. The inputdependent nature of their execution means that traditional paral...

Calvin: Deterministic or not? Free will to choose
Most shared memory systems maximize performance by unpredictably resolving memory races. Unpredictable memory races can lead to nondeterminism in parallel programs, which can suff...
