In recent software transactional memory proposals, a contention manager module is responsible for ensuring that the system as a whole makes progress. A number of contention manage...
The concept of a SOC platform architecture introduces the concept of a communication infrastructure. In the transaction-level a finite set of architecture components (memories, ar...

Applications of the future will need to support large numbers of clients and will require scalable storage systems that allow state to be shared reliably. Recent research in distr...

: We present a new model for handling messages and state in a distributed application that we call Messages in Local Transactions (MLT). Under this model, messages and data are not...
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...
