In order to reduce the overhead of synchronizing operations of shared memory multiprocessors, this paper proposes a mechanism, named specMEM, to execute memory accesses following ...
Abstract—A probabilistic analytical framework for decentralized load balancing (LB) strategies for heterogeneous distributed-computing systems (DCSs) is presented with the overal...
