Preventing versus curing: avoiding conflicts in transactional memories
Transactional memories are typically speculative and rely on contention managers to cure conflicts. This paper explores a complementary approach that prevents conflicts by schedul...

Scalable Techniques for Transparent Privatization in Software Transactional Memory
—We address the recently recognized privatization problem in software transactional memory (STM) runtimes, and introduce the notion of partially visible reads (PVRs) to heuristic...

Advanced contention management for dynamic software transactional memory
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 ...
