Supporting Software Transactional Memory in Distributed Systems: Protocols for Cache-Coherence, Conflict Resolution and Replication
Lock-based synchronization on multiprocessors is inherently non-scalable, non-composable, and error-prone. These problems are exacerbated in distributed systems due to an additional layer of complexity: multinode concurrency. Transactional memory (TM) is an emerging, alternative synchronization abst...
