A shared-memory architecture is a system where all the processors or nodes have access to a common memory pool. This means that they can read and write data to the same memory locations, and share ...

Deciding between shared-memory and distributed-memory parallelism is not a straightforward choice, as it depends on several factors, including the problem domain, the hardware architecture ...

struct used to record distributed shared memory, it contains informations about the size of shared memory, pointer for allocation, and also a linked list of Mem_Info_Node, which records the start and ...

"What we have done is adapt OpenMP by extending and modifying protocols and runtime mechanisms to make it more flexible so programs can run on shared or distributed-memory systems without having ...

The shared memory represents one of the key elements in designing MP-SoCs, since its function is to provide data exchange and synchronization support. In this paper, a distributed shared memory ...

“In this work, we propose MegaMmap: a software distributed shared memory (DSM) that enlarges effective memory capacity through intelligent tiered DRAM and storage management. MegaMmap provides ...

This paper describes the goals, programming model and design of DiSOM, a software based distributed shared memory system for a multicomputer composed of heterogeneous nodes connected by a high-speed ...
