Real-Time Software Transactional Memory: Contention Managers, Time Bounds, and Implementations
… software, and present a suite of real-time STM contention managers for resolving transactional conflicts. The contention managers are called ECM, RCM, LCM, PNF, and FBLT. RCM and ECM resolve conflicts using fixed and dynamic priorities of real-time tasks, respectively, and are naturally intended …

The Weakest Failure Detector for Solving Wait-Free, Eventually Bounded-Fair Dining Philosophers
… scheduling, self-stabilizing daemons, and contention managers). Unfortunately, it is known that wait-free dining is unsolvable in asynchronous message-passing systems subject to crash faults. To circumvent this impossibility result, it is necessary to assume the existence of bounds on …

Collaborative Scheduling and Synchronization of Distributable Real-Time Threads
… multiprocessor systems. We also develop contention management techniques, a key component of STM, which are driven by threads' real-time scheduling parameters, and establish their tradeoffs against non-real-time contention managers.

Supporting Software Transactional Memory in Distributed Systems: Protocols for Cache-Coherence, Conflict Resolution and Replication
… requesting an object under the Greedy contention manager and an arbitrary CC protocol. To improve the performance, we propose a class of location-aware CC protocols, called LAC protocols. We show that the combination of the Greedy manager and a LAC protocol yields an O(NlogN s) …
