It has been shown that many requests miss in all remote nodes in shared memory multiprocessors. We are motivated by the observation that this behavior extends to much coarser grai...
OpenMP has emerged as an important model and language extension for shared-memory parallel programming. On shared-memory platforms, OpenMP offers an intuitive, incremental approac...
Caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures to hide, in part, the increasing gap between processor speed and memory access times. While the effect of caches on timi...
Three different partial differential equation (PDE) solver kernels are analyzed in respect to cache memory performance on a simulated shared memory computer. The kernels implement...
This paper evaluates performance characteristics of the Compaq ES40 shared memory multiprocessor. The ES40 system contains up to four Alpha 21264 CPU’s together with a high-perf...
