Current operating systems offer basic support for network interface controllers (NICs) supporting remote direct memory access (RDMA). Such support typically consists of a device d...
Low-latency remote-write networks, such as DEC’s Memory Channel, provide the possibility of transparent, inexpensive, large-scale shared-memory parallel computing on clusters of...
