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...
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...
We are currently developing Willow, a shared-memory multiprocessor whose design provides system capacity and performance capable of supporting over a thousand commercial microproc...

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...
Abstract. It has been already verified that hardware-supported finegrain synchronization provides a significant performance improvement over coarse-grained synchronization mecha...
