User-controllable coherence for high performance shared memory multiprocessors
In programming high performance applications, shared address-space platforms are preferable for fine-grained computation, while distributed address-space platforms are more suita...

How Much Does Network Contention Affect Distributed Shared Memory Performance?
Most of recent research on distributed shared memory (DSM)systems have focused on either careful design of node controllersor cache coherenceprotocols. Whileevaluating these desig...

Optimizing IPC Performance for Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
We assert that in order to perform well, a shared-memory multiprocessorinter-process communication (IPC)facility mustavoid a) accessing any shared data, and b) acquiring any locks...

Direct Coherence: Bringing Together Performance and Scalability in Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
Traditional directory-based cache coherence protocols suffer from long-latency cache misses as a consequence of the indirection introduced by the home node, which must be accessed...
