In this paper we propose a novel software-only distributed sharedmemory system (SW-DSM), the Affinity Entry Consistency (AEC) protocol. The protocol is based on Entry Consistency ...
In the mobile environment, weak consistency replication of shared data is the key to obtaining high data availability, good access performance, and good scalability. Therefore new...

The behavior of Distributed Shared Memory Systems is dictated by the Memory Consistency Model. Several Memory Consistency Models have been proposed in the literature and they fit ...
A concurrent object is an object that can be concurrently accessed by several processes. Sequential consistency is a consistency criterion for such objects. Informally, it states ...
