Abstract
A first set of threads having a same address corresponding to the shared memory is identified from a group of active threads associated with an instruction to update a shared memory. A first thread of the first set of threads is selected. The instruction is executed for the first thread using the same address to access the shared memory. Attempts to execute the instruction for remaining threads of the first set of threads are delayed until after the first thread is executed and until at least one of the remaining threads of the first set of threads is not guaranteed to fail execution of the instruction.
