Network Distributed Global Memory for Transparent Message Passing on DistributedNetworks

摘要

Distributing compute-intensive applications across multiple platforms cansignificantly reduce the total execution time of the application. Programming such a system typically involves sending explicit messages between cooperating processes. Keeping track of these messages, however, can be a difficult, error-prone task. Shared memory models are typically easier to program. Network Distributed Global Memory (NDGM) allows the programmer to view the physically distributed environment as a single, contiguous address space. Instead of sending an explicit message to another node, processes write and read from a global block of memory.
