Abstract. We present a detailed investigation of the scalability characteristics of the SPEC OpenMP benchmarks on large-scale shared memory multiprocessor machines. Our study is ba...
—This paper describes the methods used to formulate and validate the memory subsystem of the cache-coherent Sun Scalable emory MultiProcessor (S3.mp) at three levels of abstracti...

This paper examines the architecture, algorithm and implementation of a switch-based multi-processor realization of the fast Fourier transform (FFT). The architecture employs M pr...
We investigate the average-case speed and scalability of parallel algorithms executing on multiprocessors. Our performance metrics are average-speed and isospeed scalability. By m...
