Abstract
A shiftable memory supporting atomic operation employs built-in shifting capability to shift a contiguous subset of data from a first location to a second location within memory during an atomic operation. The shiftable memory includes the memory to store data. The memory has the built-in shifting capability. The shiftable memory further includes an atomic primitive defined on the memory to operate on the contiguous subset.
