Shared Memory is an interesting communication paradigm for SMP machines and clusters. Weak consistency models have been proposed to improve efficiency of shared memory applications...
The ability to provide uniform shared-memory access to a significant number of processors in a single SMP node brings us much closer to the ideal PRAM parallel computer. In this pa...

One approach in verifying the correctness of a multiprocessor system is to show that its execution results comply with the memory consistency model it is meant to implement. It ha...
Bulk memory copies incur large overheads such as CPU stalling (i.e., no overlap of computation with memory copy operation), small register-size data movement, cache pollution, etc...
