Most microprocessor chips today use an out-of-order instruction execution mechanism. This mechanism allows superscalar processors to extract reasonably high levels of instruction ...
In this paper we present the thread migration mechanism of DSM-PEPE, a multithreaded distributed shared memory system. DSM systems like DSM-PEPE provide a parallel environment to h...
In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant mechanism for microprocessors, which detects transient faults and recovers from them. There are two driving force to investigate fault-t...
In order to reduce the overhead of synchronizing operations of shared memory multiprocessors, this paper proposes a mechanism, named specMEM, to execute memory accesses following ...
The goal of this paper is to gain insight into the relative performance of communication mechanisms as bisection bandwidth and network latency vary. We compare shared memory with ...
