Main memory latencies have always been a concern for system performance. Given that reads are on the critical path for CPU progress, reads must be prioritized over writes. However...
Modern out-of-order processors with non-blocking caches exploit Memory-Level Parallelism (MLP) by overlapping cache misses in a wide instruction window. The exploitation of MLP, h...
Efficient intra-node shared memory communication is important for High Performance Computing (HPC), especially with the emergence of multi-core architectures. As clusters continue ...
Despite a large research effort, software distributed shared memory systems have not been widely used to run parallel applications across clusters of computers. The higher perform...
Resource sharing within Grid collaborations usually implies specific sharing mechanisms at participating sites. Challenging policy issues can arise within virtual organizations (V...
