Abstract
Join patterns may be compiled using software transactional memories (STM's) without the use of locks or other low level constructs. In particular, any number of STM threads may each perform a corresponding change set on a corresponding channel set. Each such STM thread may perform its corresponding change set by acquiring non-exclusive access to its corresponding channel set. Once each of the STM threads has performed its corresponding change set, a comparison is made to determine whether any two or more of the change sets are inconsistent with one another. The consistent change sets may be committed to memory. The inconsistent change sets may be either committed or rolled back.
