Lock-free algorithms guarantee progress by having threads help one another. Complex lock-free operations facilitate helping by creating descriptor objects that describe how other threads should help them. In many lock-free algorithms, a new descriptor ...
State teleportation is a new technique for exploiting hardware transactional memory (HTM) to improve existing synchronization and memory management schemes for highly-concurrent data structures. When applied to fine-grained locking, a thread holding the ...
