Employing Transactional Memory and Helper Threads to Speedup Dijkstra's Algorithm
In this paper we work on the parallelization of the inherently serial Dijkstra's algorithm on modern multicore platforms. Dijkstra's algorithm is a greedy algorithm that ...

A comprehensive strategy for contention management in software transactional memory
In Software Transactional Memory (STM), contention management refers to the mechanisms used to ensure forward progress-to avoid livelock and starvation, and to promote throughput ...

JudoSTM: A Dynamic Binary-Rewriting Approach to Software Transactional Memory
With the advent of chip-multiprocessors, we are faced with the challenge of parallelizing performance-critical software. Transactional memory (TM) has emerged as a promising progr...

Model checking transactional memories
Model checking software transactional memories (STMs) is difficult because of the unbounded number, length, and delay of concurrent transactions and the unbounded size of the memo...

Implementing Signatures for Transactional Memory
Transactional Memory (TM) systems must track the read and write sets—items read and written during a transaction—to detect conflicts among concurrent transactions. Several TM...
