Distributed shared objects are a well known approach to achieve independenceof the memory model for parallel programming. The illusion of shared (global) objects is a conabstracti...
Power-Efficient DRAM Speculation (PEDS) is a power optimization targeted at broadcast-based sharedmemory multiprocessor systems that speculatively access DRAM in parallel with the...
