Abstract
A method includes the following steps. Runtime statistics related to data transaction processing in a concurrent system are collected. A given request to access shared data in the concurrent system is receive. Based on the collected runtime statistics, the number of reattempts the given request can make to access the shared data prior to access control being switched from a hardware transactional memory to a locking mechanism is adaptively determined.
