Rebound: scalable checkpointing for coherent shared memory
As we move to large manycores, the hardware-based global checkpointing schemes that have been proposed for small shared-memory machines do not scale. Scalability barriers include ...

Synchronization and Communication in the T3E Multiprocessor
This paper describes the synchronization and communication primitives of the Cray T3E multiprocessor, a shared memory system scalable to 2048 processors. We discuss what we have l...
