Abstract

In this paper, we describe the Follow the Data pattern, which provides a method for implementing shared memory semantics in a multi-processor or multi-core environment. It relies on locking data down to certain cores and move the execution of programs to that core whenever needed, as opposed to traditional methods that rely on data copying.
