Distributed Shared Memory Consistency Object-based Model

Reconfigurable Object Consistency Model for Distributed Shared Memory

Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems can share a set of objects or virtual memory pages. The data sharing enables the applications to access the data concurrently. But, these concurrent accesses can generate some inconsistencies in the shared data state. The consistency models are responsible for managing the state of shared data for the applications. The already proposed consistency models ...

Object{Based Consistency in a Distributed Shared Memory

Distributed shared memory (DSM) systems combine the advantages of shared memory multiproces-sors and distributed systems. The value of DSM systems primarily depends on the expressiveness of their consistency model and on implementation ee-ciency which are contradicting goals. In this paper, we sketch existing DSM consistency models and develop a model which allows to eeciently deal with shared ...

View-based Consistency for Distributed Shared Memory

This paper proposes a novel View-based Consistency model for Distributed Shared Memory. A view is a set of data objects that a processor has the right to access in a data-race-free program. The View-based Consistency model requires that the data objects of a view are updated only before a processor accesses them. Compared with other memory consistency models, the View-based Consistency model ca...

E cient Distributed Shared Memory Based On Multi-Protocol Release Consistency by John B. Carter A distributed shared memory (DSM) system allows shared memory parallel programs to be executed on distributed memorymultiprocessors. The challenge in building a DSM system is to achieve good performance over a wide range of shared memory programs without requiring extensive modi cations to the source...
