A key challenge in achieving high performance on software DSM systems is overcoming their relatively large communication latencies. In this paper, we consider two techniques which...
In this paper, we quantify the adverse effect of file sharing on the performance of reliable distributed applications. We demonstrate that file sharing incurs significant overhead...
The fast evolution of processor performance necessitates a permanent evolution of all the multiprocessor components, even for small to medium-scale symmetric multiprocessors (SMP)...
