This paper introduces Strings, a high performance distributed shared memory system designed for clusters of symmetrical multiprocessors (SMPs). The distinguishing feature of this ...
Both hardware and software prefetching have been shown to be e ective in tolerating the large memory latencies inherent in shared-memory multiprocessors however, both types of pre...
Abstract. As the disparity between processor and memory speed continues to widen, the exploitation of locality of reference in shared-memory multiprocessors becomes an increasingly...
We present several e cient algorithms for sorting on the uniform memory hierarchy UMH, introduced by Alpern, Carter, and Feig, and its parallelization P-UMH. We give optimal and ne...
This paper proposes an application-transparent, low-overhead checkpointing strategy for maintaining consistency of control structures in a commercial main memory database (MMDB) sy...
