A Performance Evaluation of the Convex SPP-1000 Scalable Shared Memory Parallel Computer
The Convex SPP-1000 is the first commercial implementation of a new generation of scalable shared memory parallel computers with full cache coherence. It employs a hierarchical s...

Software-Based Cache Coherence with Hardware-Assisted Selective Self-Invalidations Using Bloom Filters
— Implementing shared memory consistency models on top of hardware caches gives rise to the well-known cache coherence problem. The standard solution involves implementing cohere...

Dynamic Self-Invalidation: Reducing Coherence Overhead in Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
This paper introduces dynamic self-invalidation (DSI), a new technique for reducing cache coherence overhead in shared-memory multiprocessors. DSI eliminates invalidation messages...
