Software transactional memory for large scale clusters
2008
Proceedings of the 13th ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles and practice of parallel programming - PPoPP '08
While there has been extensive work on the design of software transactional memory (STM) for cache coherent shared memory systems, there has been no work on the design of an STM system for very large scale platforms containing potentially thousands of nodes. In this work, we present Cluster-STM, an STM designed for high performance on large-scale commodity clusters. Our design addresses several novel issues posed by this domain, including aggregating communication, managing locality, and
