In this paper, we evaluated various distributed mutual exclusion algorithms on the IBM SP2 machine and the Intel iPSC/860 system. The empirical results are compared in terms of su...
DataScalar architectures improve memory system performance by running computation redundantly across multiple processors, which are each tightly coupled with an associated memory....
Informed prefetching and caching based on application disclosure of future I/O accesses (hints) can dramatically reduce the execution time of I/O-intensive applications. A recent ...
