Efficient Multi-Word Compare and Swap

Rachid Guerraoui, Mihail Igor Zablotchi

Atomic lock-free multi-word compare-and-swap (MCAS) is a powerful tool for designing concurrent algorithms. Yet, its widespread usage has been limited because lock-free implementations of MCAS make heavy use of expensive compare-and-swap (CAS) instructions ...

On the Performance of Delegation over Cache-Coherent Shared Memory

André Schiper, Thomas Ropars, Darko Petrovic

Delegation is a thread synchronization technique where access to shared data is performed through a dedicated server thread. When a client thread requires shared data access, it makes a request to a server and waits for a response. This paper studies deleg ...
