Despite recent increase in research on improvement of non-functional properties of
software, such as energy usage or program size, there is a lack of standard benchmarks for …

Emerging non-volatile memory (NVM) offers non-volatility, byte-addressability and fast
access at the same time. To make the best use of these properties, it has been shown by …

The current generation of software transactional memories has the advantage of being
simple and efficient. Nevertheless, there are several parameters that affect the performance …

Drawing inspiration from several previous projects, we present an ownership-record-free
software transactional memory (STM) system that combines extremely low overhead with …

This paper describes an end-to-end system implementation of the transactional memory
(TM) programming model on top of the hardware transactional memory (HTM) of the Blue …

Recent non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies, such as PCM, STT-MRAM and ReRAM,
can act as both main memory and storage. This has led to research into NVM programming …

Software transactional memory (STM) is a concurrency control mechanism that is widely
considered to be easier to use by programmers than other mechanisms such as locking. The …

Transactional memory systems are expected to enable parallel programming at lower
programming complexity, while delivering improved performance over traditional lock-based …

Transactional memory (TM) is a promising synchronization mechanism for the next
generation of multicore processors. Best-effort Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) …
