Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In shared memory systems concurrent processes operate on shared data structures. The consistency of the data structures is maintained by mutual exclusion, which is implemented by locking. Locking is an easy way of ensuring consistency of the shared data structures, but it has several drawbacks. The major drawback is that it increases the latency of all the processes as the shared data structure is accessed in a serial manner. It might also result in deadlocks when the process currently accessing the shared data structure is pre-empted or terminated. An alternate approach to avoid mutual exclusion by locking is by implementing lock-free data structures. This is possible by using basic synchronization primitives such as Compare & Swap and Double Compare & Swap. Processes can concurrently read and write on these data structures and also maintain the consistency of the data structure. Lock-free data structures reduces the latency of the processes and avoids deadlocks. This thesis presents lock-free linked listsalong with the algorithms that operate on them. The algorithms were simulated and were compared with Greenwald & Cheriton's and Valois' algorithms. The design of the linked lists along with the effective and efficient use of the synchronization primitives in the algorithms provides a improved performance over the other two algorithms. The correctness of the algorithms is also presented in the thesis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers present in this text survey 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. The authors provide 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. This guide 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Shared memory is widely believed to provide an easier programming model than message passing for expressing parallel algorithms. Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems provide the illusion of shared memory on top of standard message passing hardware at very low implementation cost, but provide acceptable performance on only a limited class of applications. In this paper we study the main sources of overhead found in software-coherent, distributed shared-memory systems and argue that recent revolutionary changes in network technology now allow us to design protocols that minimize such overheads and that approach the performance of full hardware coherence. Specifically, we claim that memory-mapped network interfaces that support a global physical address space can greatly improve the performance of DSM systems. To support this claim we study a variety of coherence protocols that can take advantage of the global physical address space and compare their performance with the best known protocol for pure message passing hardware. For the programs in our application suite, protocols taking advantage of the new hardware features improve performance by at least 50% and by as much as an order of magnitude."

This book was released on 1992 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Distributed shared memory has received a [sic] considerable attention recently. It provides a unified memory framework for the development of parallel programs. As objects have been proved to be useful in databases and programming environments, the idea can be carried over to distributed operating systems. In this paper, the concept of a structured distributed shared memory, where memory units are objects, is introduced. The coherence of object replicas is maintained by type- specific coherence protocols, which are based on the semantics of operations on objects. The aim is to reduce message traffic and operation latency under many common situations. The new protocols subsume traditional distributed shared memory protocols based on the read/write model."
