To achieve true scalability for supercomputing, a different architecture strategy is required beyond the limitations of symmetric multiprocessors. As previously discussed in detail in Chapter 10 , symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) architectures export a single system image of shared memory and multiple ...
Distributed shared memory architecture.This type of memory architecture is applied to loosely coupled distributed memory systems. It enables end-user processes to access shared data without the need for inter-process communication. Advantages of distributed computing Distributed computing offers the following...
memory can be shaped to fit the system architecture. For those parts of the sys- tem that are memory intensive, a single CPU can have dedicated memory. For other parts that need the horsepower of several CPUs to work on one set of ...
Based on this framework, we develop a rewriting system that structurally manipulates DFT algorithms to 'match' them to a distributed memory target architecture and hence extracts maximum performance. 展开 关键词: Computer architecture Fourier transformation Distributed data processing Target acquisition ...
In this position paper we describe the architecture of a distributed shared memory system named Advice, which has been designed for maximum flexibility and adaptability. Advice provides a means through which memory services can be dynamically adapted to the user needs. Keywords: distributed shared memo...
All processors share the same memory space in a multiprocessor system while in a multicomputer system each processor has its own private memory space. Figures 8.13 and 8.14 illustrate the difference between the two generic architectures. There must be explicit communication interfaces between processors...

In-memory distributed caching is a form of caching that allows the cache to span multiple servers so that it can grow in size and in transactional capacity. Distributed caching has become feasible now for a number of reasons. First, memory has become very cheap, and you can stuff computers ...
A computer system having plural nodes interconnected by a common broadcast bus. Each node has memory and at least one node has a processor. The system has a dynamically configurable memory which may b
Examples may include techniques to enable cache coherency of objects in a distributed shared memory (DSM) system, even where multiple nodes in the system manage the objects. Node memory space includes a tracking address space (TAS) where lines in the TAS correspond to objects in the (DSM). ...
