Atomic boxes: coordinated exception handling with transactional memory

Pascal Felber, Vincent Gramoli

In concurrent programs raising an exception in one thread does not prevent others from operating on an inconsistent shared state. Instead, exceptions should ideally be handled in coordination by all the threads that are affected by their cause. In this pap ...

Émulation de mémoire partagée en environnements distribués dynamiques

Vincent Gramoli

Most distributed systems are large-scale and dynamic. Communication has thus become a critical issue and the shared memory, which is a reliable paradigm of communication, allow distributed nodes to exchange information through read and write operations. In ...

Brief Announcement: Transaction Polymorphism

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

In this work, we present transaction polymorphism; a synchronization technique that provides more control to the programmer than traditional (i.e., monomorphic) transactions to achieve comparable performance to generic lock-based and lock-free solutions. ...

Democratizing Transactional Programming

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

The Transaction abstraction is arguably one of the most appealing middleware paradigms. It lies typically between the programmer of a concurrent or distributed application on the one hand, and the operating system with the underlying network on the other h ...

On the Input Acceptance of Transactional Memory

Pascal Felber, Vincent Gramoli

We present the Input Acceptance of Transactional Memory (TM). Despite the large interest for performance of TMs, no existing research work has investigated the impact of solving a conflict that does not need to be solved. Traditional solutions for a TM to ...

Extensible Transactional Memory Testbed

Pascal Felber, Vincent Gramoli

Transactional Memory (TM) is a promising abstraction as it hides all synchronization complexities from the programmers of concurrent applications. More particularly the TM paradigm operated a complexity shift from the application programming to the TM prog ...

A Provably Starvation-Free Distributed Directory Protocol

Hagit Albo Attiya, Vincent Gramoli

This paper presents Combine, a distributed directory protocol for shared objects, designed for large-scale distributed systems. Directory protocols support move requests, allowing to write the object locally, as well as lookup requests, providing a read-on ...

Slicing Distributed Systems

Vincent Gramoli, Anne-Marie Kermarrec

Peer-to-peer (P2P) architectures are popular for tasks such as collaborative download, VoIP telephony, and backup. To maximize performance in the face of widely variable storage capacities and bandwidths, such systems typically need to shift work from poor ...

Elastic Transactions

Pascal Felber, Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

This paper presents elastic transactions, a variant of the transactional model. Upon conflict detection, an elastic transaction might drop what it did so far within a separate transaction that immediately commits, and initiate a new transaction which might ...

Reconfigurable Distributed Storage for Dynamic Networks

Seth Gilbert, Vincent Gramoli

This paper presents a new algorithm for implementing a reconfigurable distributed shared memory in an asynchronous dynamic network. The algorithm guarantees atomic consistency (linearizability) in all executions in the presence of arbitrary crash failures ...

SONDe, a Self-Organizing Object Deployment Algorithm in Large-Scale Dynamic Systems

Vincent Gramoli, Anne-Marie Kermarrec

We present the design, correctness, and analysis of SONDe, a simple fully decentralized object deployment algorithm for highly requested systems. Given an object (service or data), SONDe provides a node with a constant upper bound (h) on the number of logi ...
