Abstract :
A distributed shared memory system, named SMS, is a user-level software system. It provides a virtual shared memory environment on a computer cluster consisting of computers connected by a communication network. Although the SMS requires only commodity hardware and software, it enables users to write parallel programs under a shared memory programming model
