Understanding the Memory Behavior Performance on Software.. - Poulos   (Correct)

....performance. For software DSM in particular, compiler transformations yielding performance optimizations based on communication aggregation and consistency overhead elimination are restricted to specific protocols supporting special user level operations and applications with regular behavior [10]. Furthermore, the performance of parallel applications depends crucially on the interaction between the coherence protocol used and the memory reference pattern of the program. Recent work [17, 25] introduced the notion of application specific protocols that offer the ability to customize the ....

Page Fault Behavior and Prefetching in Software DSMs - Ricardo Bianchini (1997)   (Correct)

....fetch overheads without increasing the IPC and synchronization latencies significantly. 6 Related Work As far as we know, no other study has addressed the page fault behavior of applications running on software DSMs explicitly. Prefetching for software DSMs has received little attention so far [5, 7, 6, 1]. Among other techniques, Dwarkadas et al. 5] studied diff prefetching at lock acquire operations. Their cross synchronization prefetching strategy can be very precise about future page access patterns, but only sends prefetches to the last lock releaser, which might not have an upto date copy ....
