Design, Implementation, and Evaluation of a Virtual Shared Memory System in a Multi-Transputer Network.

Abstract

This thesis presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of a virtual shared memory in a multi-Transputer network. The thesis explores the Transputer hardware implementation model and highlights the important details that programmers of such systems may need before being able to optimize such networks. All the programs and examples presented in this thesis were implemented in the OCCAM programming language, using the Transputer Development System, D700C, Beta 2.0 March 1987 compiler version.
