Hybrid transactional memory
TL;DR: Using a simulated multiprocessor with HTM support, the viability of the HyTM approach is demonstrated: it can provide performance and scalability approaching that of an unbounded HTM implementation, without the need to support all transactions with complicatedHTM support.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Early experience with a commercial hardware transactional memory implementation
TL;DR: The experience includes a number of promising results using HTM to improve performance in a variety of contexts, and also identifies some ways in which the feature could be improved to make it even better.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Dynamic circular work-stealing deque
David R. Chase,Yossi Lev +1 more
TL;DR: This work presents a simple lock-free work-stealing deque, which stores the elements in a cyclic array that can grow when it overflows, and has no limit other than integer overflow on the number of elements on the deque.
The Fortress Language Specification
Eric Allen,David R. Chase,Joe Hallett,Victor Luchangco,Jan-Willem Maessen,Sukyoung Ryu,Guy L. Steele,Joao Dias,Carl Eastlund,Christine H. Flood,Yossi Lev,Cheryl McCosh +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the same authors propose a factory for immutable arrays that returns an empty 0-indexed array of a given run-time-determined size, which can be used to create a new array structurally identical to the present one, but holding elements of type U.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Hybrid NOrec: a case study in the effectiveness of best effort hardware transactional memory
Luke Dalessandro,Francois Carouge,Sean White,Yossi Lev,Mark S. Moir,Michael L. Scott,Michael Spear +6 more
TL;DR: A family of hybrid TMs built using the recent NOrec STM algorithm is introduced that, unlike existing hybrid approaches, provide both low overhead on hardware transactions and concurrent execution of hardware and software transactions.
