METHOD FOR OPERATING HYBRID TRANSACTIONAL MEMORY SYSTEM WITH OPTIMAL RETRY POLICY AND HYBRID TRANSACTIONAL MEMORY SYSTEM

摘要

Disclosed are a hybrid transactional memory system and a method of operating a hybrid transactional memory system that provides an optimal retry policy in a hybrid transactional memory system. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method of operating a hybrid transactional memory system including at least a LiteHTM and a NOrecSTM includes, in the LiteHTM, a set number of retries each time an execution of a transaction fails (abort). Subtracting; And when the number of retries is all deducted, executing the transaction in the NOrecSTM instead of the LiteHTM.
