    • OS Support for Virtualizing Hardware Transactional Memory 

      Swift, Michael M.; Volos, Haris; Goyal, Neelam; Yen, Luke; Hill, Mark D.; Wood, David A. (University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Computer Sciences, 2008)
      Transactional memory promises to simplify multithreaded programming. Hardware TM (HTM) implementations promise better performance by augmenting processors with transactional state. However, HTMs interact poorly with the ...
    • Pathological Interaction of Locks with Transactional Memory 

      Volos, Haris; Goyal, Neelam; Swift, Michael M. (University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Computer Sciences, 2008)
      Transactional memory (TM) promises to simplify multithreaded programming. Transactions provide mutual exclusion without the possibility of deadlock and the need to assign locks to data structures. To date, most ...
    • Signature Matching in Network Processing Using SIMD/GPU Architectures 

      Goyal, Neelam; Ormont, Justin; Smith, Randy; Sankaralingam, Karthikeyan; Estan, Cristian (University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Computer Sciences, 2008)
      Deep packet inspection is becoming prevalent for modern network processing systems. They inspect packet payloads for a variety of reasons, including intrusion detection, traffic policing, and load balancing. The focus of ...
