Optimizing hybrid transactional memory: the importance of nonspeculative operations
- T. Riegel, P. Marlier, Martin Nowack, P. Felber, C. Fetzer
- Computer ScienceACM Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and…
- 4 June 2011
Several new hybrid TM algorithms are presented that can execute HTM and STM transactions concurrently and can thus provide good performance over a large spectrum of workloads and are evaluated based on AMD's Advanced Synchronization Facility.
Evaluation of AMD's advanced synchronization facility within a complete transactional memory stack

Speculation for Parallelizing Runtime Checks
- Martin Süßkraut, Stefan Weigert, C. Fetzer
- Computer ScienceSafety-critical Systems Symposium
- 5 November 2009
ParExC has --- in contrast to similar frameworks --- two noteworthy features that permit a more efficient parallelization of checks: (1) speculative variables, and (2) the ability to add checks by static instrumentation.

TM-dietlibc: A TM-aware Real-World System Library
- Vesna Smiljkovic, Martin Nowack, M. Valero
- Computer ScienceIEEE 27th International Symposium on Parallel and…
- 20 May 2013
This paper presents the first TM-aware system library, a complex software implementation integrated with TM principles and suited for software (STM), hardware (HTM) and hybrid TM (HyTM), derived from a modified lock-based implementation and can be used with the existing standard C API.
