Scope Consistency : A Bridge between Release Consistency and Entry Consistency
- In Proceedings of the 8th Annual ACM Symposium on Parallel Algorithms and Architectures
, 1996
"... The large granularity of communication and coherence in shared virtual memory systems causes problems with false sharing and extra communication. Relaxed memory consistency models have been used to alleviate these problems, but at a cost in programming complexity. Release Consistency (RC) and Lazy R ..."

Lazy Release Consistency for Distributed Shared Memory
, 1995
"... A software distributed shared memory (DSM) system allows shared memory parallel programs to execute on networks of workstations. This thesis presents a new class of protocols that has lower communication requirements than previous DSM protocols, and can consequently achieve higher performance. The l ..."

. The lazy release consistent protocols achieve this reduction in communication by piggybacking consistency information on top of existing synchronization transfers. Some of the protocols also improve performance by speculatively moving data. We evaluate the impact of these features by comparing
Implementation and performance of Munin

, 1991
"... Munin is a distributed shared memory (DSM) system that allows shared memory parallel programs to be executed efficiently on distributed memory multiprocessors. Munin is unique among existing DSM systems in its use of multiple consistency protocols and in its use of release consistency. In Munin, sha ..."

An Evaluation of Software-Based Release Consistent Protocols
- Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing
, 1995
"... This paper presents an evaluation of three software implementations of release consistency. Release consistent protocols allow data communication to be aggregated, and multiple writers to simultaneously modify a single page. We evaluated an eager invalidate protocol that enforces consistency when sy ..."

Heuristic Diff Acquiring in Lazy Release Consistency Model
- In Proc. of 1997 Asian Computing Science Conference (ASIAN’97), LNCS 1345
, 1997
"... . This paper presents a Heuristic Diff Acquiring (HDA) protocol in Lazy Release Consistency (LRC) based distributed shared memory (DSM) systems. Based on the run-time detection of associations between locks and data, the HDA can selectively piggy-back useful page diffs in a lock grant message. By ad ..."

Improving Release-Consistent Shared Virtual Memory using Automatic Update
- IN THE 2ND IEEE SYMPOSIUM ON HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE
, 1996
"... Shared virtual memory is a software technique to provide shared memory on a network of computers without special hardware support. Although several relaxed consistency models and implementations are quite effective, there is still a considerable performance gap between the "software-only" ..."

Automatic update is a simple communication mechanism, implemented in the SHRIMP multicomputer, that forwards local writes to remote memory transparently. In this paper we propose a new lazy release consistency based protocol, called
Efficient Distributed Shared Memory Based On Multi-Protocol Release Consistency
