Transactional Memory, 2nd Edition (Synthesis Lectures on Computer Architecture)

The advent of multicore processors has renewed interest in the idea of incorporating transactions into the programming model used to write parallel programs. Get Transactional Memory, 2nd Edition computer books for free.
This approach, known as transactional memory, offers an alternative, and hopefully better, way to coordinate concurrent threads. The ACI (atomicity, consistency, isolation) properties of transactions provide a foundation to ensure that concurrent reads and writes of shared data do not produce inconsistent or incorrect results. At a higher level, a computation wrapped in a transaction executes atomically - either it completes successfully and commits its result in its entirety or it aborts. In addition, isolation ensures the transaction produces the same result as if no other transactions Check Transactional Memory, 2nd Edition our best computer books for 2013. All books are available in pdf format and downloadable from rapidshare, 4shared, and mediafire.
