Abstract: We are rapidly approaching a time when large-scale shared memory supercomputers will have remote memory latencies measured in the thousands of cycles and cross-section bandwidth will be a limiting performance factor. For these machines to scale, mechanisms that minimize interprocessor communication will be essential. We propose one such mechanism, active memory, which allows operations to be sent to and executed on the home memory controller of particular data items. Performing the operations... (Update)
