: Normally the SISCI interface provides a Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) abstraction using the Scalable Coherent Interface (SCI). This paper describes and discusses the design and...
Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) combines the scalability of loosely coupled multicomputer systems with the ease of usability of tightly coupled multiprocessors, and allows transpa...

We propose, and justify, an economic theory to guide memory system design, operation, and analysis. Our theory treats memory random-access latency, and its cost per installed mega...
Transactional memory is an attractive design concept for scalable multiprocessors because it offers efficient lock-free synchronization and greatly simplifies parallel software....
