Abstract
For a large number of scientific computations (e. g. multigrid algorithms) an enormous amount of data has to be handled and processed. Therefore in the context of a parallel computing system the organization and access to primary memory and the close coupling of secondary memories is crucial to the overall system performance. For applications with local character we propose the concept of a distributed shared memory as the basis for a hierarchical NN (nearest neighbour) multiprocessor system. The systems architecture, applications and first results on the EGPA and DIRMU multiprocessors are presented.
