We assert that in order to perform well, a shared-memory multiprocessorinter-process communication (IPC)facility mustavoid a) accessing any shared data, and b) acquiring any locks...
In programming high performance applications, shared address-space platforms are preferable for fine-grained computation, while distributed address-space platforms are more suita...
On multiprocessors with explicitly managed memory hierarchies (EMM), software has the responsibility of moving data in and out of fast local memories. This task can be complex and...

In this paper we propose mechanisms to improve the performance of parallel Java applications executing on multiprogrammed shared-memory multiprocessors. The proposal is based on a...
