Thread-Level Speculation (TLS) is a promising technique that allows the parallel execution
of sequential code without relying on a prior, compile-time-dependence analysis. In this …

In this article we introduce GMU, a genuine partial replication protocol for transactional
systems, which exploits an innovative, highly scalable, distributed multiversioning scheme …

Explores the firewall security and performance relationships for distributed systems.
Experiments are conducted to set firewall security into seven different levels and to quantify …

In this article we present SCORe, a scalable one-copy serializable partial replication
protocol. Differently from any other literature proposal, SCORe jointly guarantees the …

Modern transactional processing systems need to be fast and scalable, but this means many
such systems settled for weak consistency models. It is however possible to achieve all of …

We present Archie, a high performance fault-tolerant transactional system. Archie complies
with the State Machine Approach, where the transactional state is fully replicated and total …

Distributed Transactional Memory (DTM) is a recent but promising model for programming
distributed systems. It aims to present programmers with a simple to use distributed …

The motivation of this work is to ask whether Transactional Memory (TM) and Thread-Level
Speculation (TLS), two prominent concurrency paradigms usually considered separately …

We present Lilac-TM, the first locality-aware Distributed Software Transactional Memory
(DSTM) implementation. Lilac-TM is a fully decentralized lease-based replicated DSTM. It …

With the reduced cost of hardware due to technological advancements and efficient elastic
networks, distributed systems size is increasing to meet better availability requirements …
