In many parallel applications, network latency causes a dramatic loss in processor utilization. This paper examines software controlled access pipelining (SCAP) as a technique for hiding network latency. An analytic model of SCAP brieey describes basic operation techniques and performance improvements. Results are quantiied with benchmarks on the Cray-T3E. The benchmarks used are Jacobi-iterati...
