Abstract: The major limitation on the performance of
shared memory multiprocessors running parallel programs
is the memory trac due to sharing, i.e.,
the coherence or consistency induced memory trac.
Much of this trac occurs due to false sharing (when
two or more processors use disjoint portions of the
same cache block) and dead sharing (the transfer of
unreferenced words in a block when the block moves
between caches). Dead and false sharing can be minimized
or eliminated by the use of a small block... (Update)
