Memory Consistency Models1

چکیده
This paper discusses memory consistency models and their influence on software in the context of parallel machines. In the first part we review previous work on memory consistency models. The second part discusses the issues that arise due to weakening memory consistency. We are especially interested in the influence that weakened consistency models have on language, compiler, and runtime system design. We conclude that tighter interaction between those parts and the memory system might improve performance considerably.

Implementation and Evaluation of Update-Based Cache Protocols Under Relaxed Memory Consistency Models1
Invalidation-based cache coherence protocols have been extensively studied in the context of large-scale shared-memory multiprocessors. Under a relaxed memory consistency model, most of the write latency can be hidden whereas cache misses still incur a severe performance problem. By contrast, update-based protocols have a potential to reduce both write and read penalties under relaxed memory co...
متن کاملFinite Order Implications of Common Priors in Infinite Models1
Lipman [2003] shows that in a finite model, the common prior assumption has weak implications for finite orders of beliefs about beliefs. In particular, the only such implications are those stemming from the weaker assumption of a common support. To explore the role of the finite model assumption in generating this conclusion, this paper considers the finite order implications of common priors ...

The present research was conducted to study the psychometric characteristics of:"Meeker's memory Subscales". The sample consisted of 292 male and female students. Memory category has six subscales based on widely recognized, multifactoral model of intelligence developed by Guilford (1959). The results indicated that for Meeker's memory subscales, internal consistency coefficients ranged from...
متن کاملPsychometric Properties of the Persian Word Pairs Task for Declarative Memory Assessment
Objective: According to the declarative/procedural model, the semantic aspect of language depends on the brain structures responsible for declarative memory. The word pairs task is a common tool for evaluating declarative memory. The current study aimed to design a valid and reliable task for evaluating declarative memory in Persian children at learning and retention stages and to investigate i...
متن کاملDefining Uniform and Hybrid Memory Consistency Models on a Unified Framework
The behavior of Distributed Shared Memory Systems is dictated by the Memory Consistency Model. Several Memory Consistency Models have been proposed in the literature and they fit basically in two categories: uniform and hybrid models. To provide a better understanding on the semantics of the memory models, researchers have proposed formalisms to define them. Unfortunately, most of the work has ...
