....processes. If it fails, all changes to the write set are discarded. Either way, Commit returns an indication of success or failure. ffl Abort discards all updates to the write set. This architecture is a simplified version of transactional memory, a cache structure proposed by Herlihy and Moss [8]. A complete description of the transactional memory implementation is beyond the scope of this abstract (see [8] for details) For now, we remark that transactional memory is implemented by modifying standard ownership based cache consistency protocols.
