Abstract: A system and method for a distributed shared memory. The system includes multiple processors, each processor transmitting write commands issued therefrom concerning a shared memory to each of the processors, such that each processor receives each shared memory write command transmitted. The system also includes multiple local memories, each local memory associated with one of the processors and having a copy of the shared memory, wherein each processor completes each received shared memory write command at its associated local memory such that the copies of the shared memory remain consistent at all times. The method includes transmitting write commands concerning the shared memory to each of the processors, such that each processor receives each shared memory write command transmitted, and completing each received shared memory write command at the associated local memory such that the copies of the shared memory remain consistent at all times.

Abstract translation: 一种用于分布式共享存储器的系统和方法。 该系统包括多个处理器，每个处理器将从其发出的写入命令从共享存储器发送到每个处理器，使得每个处理器接收发送的每个共享存储器写命令。 该系统还包括多个本地存储器，每个本地存储器与一个处理器相关联并且具有共享存储器的副本，其中每个处理器在其相关联的本地存储器处完成每个接收到的共享存储器写入命令，使得共享存储器的副本保持 始终保持一致。 该方法包括向每个处理器发送关于共享存储器的写入命令，使得每个处理器接收所发送的每个共享存储器写入命令，并在相关联的本地存储器处完成每个接收到的共享存储器写入命令，使得共享存储器的副本保留 始终保持一致。
