Abstract
An unbounded transactional memory system which can process overflow data. The unbounded transactional memory system may include a host processor, a memory, and a memory processor. The host processor may include an execution unit to perform a transaction, and a cache to temporarily store data. The memory processor may store overflow data in overflow storage included in the memory in response to an overflow event in which the overflow data is generated in the cache during the transaction.
