Abstract

From the Publisher:Presents a survey of both distributed shared memory (DSM) efforts and commercial DSM systems. The book discusses relevant issues that make the concept of DSM one of the most attractive approaches for building large-scale, high-performance multiprocessor systems. Its text provides a general introduction to the DSM field as well as a broad survey of the basic DSM concepts, mechanisms, design issues and systems. The book concentrates on basic DSM algorithms, their enhancements, and their performance evaluation. In addition, it details implementations that employ DSM solutions at the software and the hardware level. The book is a research and development reference that provides state-of-the art information that will be useful to architects, designers, and programmers of DSM systems.
