Process Migration Effects on Memory Performance of Multiprocessor
Abstract. In this work we put into evidence how the memory performance of a WebServer machine may depend on the sharing induced by process migration. We considered a shared-bus sha...

Reducing Ownership Overhead for Load-Store Sequences in Cache-Coherent Multiprocessors
Parallel programs that modify shared data in a cachecoherent multiprocessor with a write-invalidate coherence protocol create ownership overhead in the form of ownership acquisiti...

Software Cache Coherence for Large Scale Multiprocessors
Shared memory is an appealing abstraction for parallel programming. It must be implemented with caches in order toperform well, however, and caches require a coherence mechanism t...
