14th Symposium on Computer Architecture and High Performance Computing (SCAB-PAD'02)
Distributed Shared Memory in Kernel Mode
Vit?ria, ES, Brazil
October 28-October 30
ISBN: 0-7695-1772-2
In this paper, we introduce MOMEMTO (MOre MEMory Than Others) a new set of kernel mechanisms that allow users to have full control of the distributed shared memory on a cluster of personal computers. In contrast to many existing software DSM systems, MOMEMTO supports efficiently and flexibly global shared-memory allowing applications to address larger memory space than that available in a single node. MOMEMTO has been implemented in the Linux 2.4 kernel and preliminary performance results show that MOMEMTO has low memory management and communication overheads and that it can indeed perform very well for large memory configurations.
