In this paper we present a complete, compiler independent, Java STM framework called
Deuce, intended as a development platform for scalable concurrent applications and as a …

Managed Runtime Environments (MREs), such as the JVM and the CLI, form an attractive
environment for program execution, by providing portability and safety, via the use of a …

A platform that supported Sequential Consistency (SC) for all codes---not only the well-
synchronized ones---would simplify the task of programmers. Recently, several hardware …

(57) ABSTRACT A system and method for transactional memory using read write locks is
disclosed. Each of a plurality of shared memory areas is associated with a respective read …

The advent of multi-core processors means that exploiting parallelism is key to increasing
the performance of programs. Many researchers have studied the use of atomic blocks as a …

(57) ABSTRACT A system and method for concurrency control may use slotted read-write
locks. A slotted read-write lock is a lock data structure associated with a shared memory …

Transactional memory is often advocated as an easier-to-use replacement for locks that
avoids any possibility of deadlock. Recently, as more care has been exercised in precisely …

Multithreaded programs are notoriously prone to unintended interference between
concurrent threads. To address this problem, we argue that yield annotations in the source …

We present a source-to-source transformation framework, Gocc, that consumes lock-based
pessimistic concurrency programs in the Go language and transforms them into optimistic …
