Software-based distributed shared memory (DSM) systems do usually not provide any means to use shared memory regions as stacks or via an efficient heap memory allocator. Instead ...
Applications need to become more concurrent to take advantage of the increased computational power provided by chip level multiprocessing. Programmers have traditionally managed t...

Abstract. Shared counters are the key to solving a variety of coordination problems on multiprocessor machines, such as barrier synchronization and index distribution. It is desire...
When a program uses Software Transactional Memory (STM) to synchronize accesses to shared memory, the performance often depends on which STM implementation is used. Implementation...
Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems provide a logically shared memory over physically distributed memory to enable parallel computation on Networks of Workstations (NOWs). In ...
