View Caching: Efficient Software Shared Memory for Dynamic Computations
Software distributed shared memory (DSM) techniques, while effective on applications with coarse-grained sharing, yield poor performance for the fine-grained sharing encountered i...

Token tenure: PATCHing token counting using directory-based cache coherence
Traditional coherence protocols present a set of difficult tradeoffs: the reliance of snoopy protocols on broadcast and ordered interconnects limits their scalability, while dire...

Lamport Clocks: Verifying a Directory Cache-Coherence Protocol
Modern shared-memory multiprocessors use complex memory system implementations that include a variety of non-trivial and interacting optimizations. More time is spent in verifying...

RegionScout: Exploiting Coarse Grain Sharing in Snoop-Based Coherence
It has been shown that many requests miss in all remote nodes in shared memory multiprocessors. We are motivated by the observation that this behavior extends to much coarser grai...

Shasta: A Low Overhead, Software-Only Approach for Supporting Fine-Grain Shared Memory
This paper describes Shasta, a system that supports a shared address space in software on clusters of computers with physically distributed memory. A unique aspect of Shasta compa...
