    Another advantage is that memory coherence is managed by the operating system and not the written program. Two known disadvantages are: scalability beyond thirty-two processors is difficult, and the shared memory model is less flexible than the distributed memory model. [4] There are many examples of shared memory (multiprocessors): UMA ...

  3. Symmetric multiprocessing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_multiprocessing

    Diagram of a symmetric multiprocessing system. Symmetric multiprocessing or shared-memory multiprocessing [1] (SMP) involves a multiprocessor computer hardware and software architecture where two or more identical processors are connected to a single, shared main memory, have full access to all input and output devices, and are controlled by a single operating system instance that treats all ...

  4. Shared memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_memory

    HSA defines a special case of memory sharing, where the MMU of the CPU and the IOMMU of the GPU have an identical pageable virtual address space.. In computer hardware, shared memory refers to a (typically large) block of random access memory (RAM) that can be accessed by several different central processing units (CPUs) in a multiprocessor computer system.

  5. Parallel programming model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_programming_model

    Shared memory is an efficient means of passing data between processes. In a shared-memory model, parallel processes share a global address space that they read and write to asynchronously. Asynchronous concurrent access can lead to race conditions, and mechanisms such as locks, semaphores and monitors can be used to avoid these.

  6. Automatic parallelization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_parallelization

    Due to the inherent difficulties in full automatic parallelization, several easier approaches exist to get a parallel program in higher quality. One of these is to allow programmers to add "hints" to their programs to guide compiler parallelization, such as HPF for distributed memory systems and OpenMP or OpenHMPP for shared memory systems ...

  7. Multiprocessor system architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprocessor_system...

    Multiprocessor system with a shared memory closely connected to the processors. A symmetric multiprocessing system is a system with centralized shared memory called main memory (MM) operating under a single operating system with two or more homogeneous processors. There are two types of systems: Uniform memory-access (UMA) system; NUMA system

  8. Charm++ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charm++

    Charm++ is designed with the goal of enhancing programmer productivity by providing a high-level abstraction of a parallel program while at the same time delivering good performance on a wide variety of underlying hardware platforms. Programs written in Charm++ are decomposed into a number of cooperating message-driven objects called chares ...

  9. Single program, multiple data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_program,_multiple_data

    With the (IBM) SPMD model the cooperating processors (or processes) take different paths through the program, using parallel directives (parallelization and synchronization directives, which can utilize compare-and-swap and fetch-and-add operations on shared memory synchronization variables), and perform operations on data in the shared memory ...
