Abstract: The shared memory paradigm provides an easy to use programming model for communicating processes. Its implementation in distributed environments has proofed to be harder than expected. Most distributed shared memory (DSM) systems suffer from either poor performance or they are very complicated to use. The DSM system Murks, presented in this paper, is the result of the sobering experiences we made by trying to integrate an existing DSM system into a distributed OS. (Update)

...the drawbacks depicted above. The architecture of Murks, some implementation details, and performance issues have already been discussed in [PR01]. In this paper we focus on its stack and heap management which has been adapted do DSM environments. Hence, this section will only...
