Both inherently sequential code and limitations of analysis techniques prevent full parallelization of many applications by parallelizing compilers. Amdahl's Law tells us tha...
Scalability of parallel architectures is an interesting area of current research. Shared memory parallel programming is attractive stemming from its relative ease in transitioning...

This paper introduces Strings, a high performance distributed shared memory system designed for clusters of symmetrical multiprocessors (SMPs). The distinguishing feature of this ...
Most of today's multiprocessors have a DistributedShared Memory (DSM) organization, which enables scalability while retaining the convenience of the shared-memory programming...
