Additional information
<07> Work addresses shortcoming in existing use of multi-core processors. Many applications have parallelism that is only identifiable at run-time. However existing techniques for such speculation are clunky and based on database-style two-phase commit. Novelty of this work is use of in-place update with back-off if conflict, with consequence efficiency gains. SPAA acceptance rate around 25%.
