ClusterSTM

This is the code base for Cluster-STM, a software transactional memory (STM) implementation designed for large-scale "shared nothing" clusters.

License

This software is free for general use, provided that attribution is maintained (citing this repository is sufficient).

This software incorporates the umalloc library, which is released under GPL2. For further information, see the file COPYING.LIB in the directory ClusterSTM/Implementation/grt/umalloc.

This software is provided with absolutely no warranty of any kind.

Dependencies

Cluster-STM depends on the following third-party software, which is not provided in this repository.

  1. The GASNet networking library (http://gasnet.cs.berkeley.edu).

  2. The libmba library of generic C modules (http://www.ioplex.com/~miallen/libmba/).

To use Cluster-STM, you must be able to install this software.

Setup

To set up Cluster-STM on your computer, do the following:

  1. Download and install GASNet and libmba.

  2. If you use bash, create and setup the file init-local.bash as instructed in the file init.bash contained in this directory. If you use csh, do the same thing using the file init.csh.

  3. In the top-level Cluster-STM directory, issue the command make.

This should build the runtime and benchmarks. Then you can run the benchmarks located in ${CLUSTER_STM}/Benchmarks.

References

For further information on Cluster-STM and how to use it, see the paper R. Bocchino, V. Adve, and B. Chamberlain, Software Transactional Memory for Large-Scale Clusters, PPoPP 2008.
