Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | Deriving efficient cache coherence protocols through refinement | We address the problem of developing efficient cache coherence protocols for use in distributed systems implementing distributed shared memory (DSM) using message passing. A serious drawback of traditional approaches to this problem is that the users are required to state the desired coherence prot... | Cache coherence protocols; DSM; Message passing | 1997 |

Stoller, Leigh B. | Message passing support in the Avalanche widget | Minimizing communication latency in message passing multiprocessing systems is critical. An emerging problem in these systems is the latency contribution costs caused by the need to percolate the message through the memory hierarchy (at both sending and receiving nodes) and the additional cost of ma... | Avalanche widget; Message passing; Cache coherence; Message copying; Cache miss rates; Computer memory | 1996 |

Carter, John B. | MP-LOCKs: Replacing hardware synchronization primitives with message passing | Shared memory programs guarantee the correctness of concurrent accesses to shared data using interprocessor synchronization operations. The most common synchronization operators are locks, which are traditionally implemented in user-level libraries via a mix of shared memory accesses and hardware sy... | MP-LOCKs; Message passing; Shared memory programs; Synchronization operators; Synchronization primitives | 2011-05 |
