Commonality in architectures
Denis A. Nicole · ePrints Soton (University of Southampton) · 1991
Multiprocessor architectures are converging. For the present, we urgently need to adopt common standards for message passing programming. For the future, one can expect scalable virtual shared memory machines to dominate. The author discusses: communication strategies; dedicated components; programming environments; and programming. An example listing of a ranking program is given that would require such a generation of machine to execute efficiently. >
