  abstract = {In this paper, we describe lazy threads, a new approach
     for implementing multithreaded execution models on conventional
     machines. We show how they can implement a parallel call at
     nearly the efficiency of a sequential call. The central idea is
     to specialize the representation of a parallel call so that it
     can execute as a parallel-ready sequential call. This allows
     excess parallelism to degrade into sequential calls with the
     attendant efficient stack management and direct transfer of
     control and data, yet a call that truly needs to execute in
     parallel, gets its own thread of control. The efficiency of lazy
     threads is achieved through a careful attention to storage
     management and a code generation strategy that allows us to
     represent potential parallel work with no overhead.},

  abstract = {The Threaded Abstract Machine (TAM) refines dataflow
     execution models to address the critical constraints that modern
     parallel architectures place on the compilation of
     general-purpose parallel programming languages. TAM defines a
     self-scheduled machine language of parallel threads, which
     provides a path from dataflow-graph program representations to
     conventional control flow. The most important feature of TAM is
     the way it exposes the interaction between the handling of
     asynchronous message events, the scheduling of computation, and
     the utilization of the storage hierarchy. This paper provides a
     complete description of TAM and codifies the model in terms of a
     pseudo machine language TL0. Issues in compilation from a high
     level parallel language to TL0 are discussed in general and
     specifically in regard to the Id90 language. The implementation
     of TL0 on the CM-5 multiprocessor is explained in detail. Using
     this implementation, a cost model is developed for the various
     TAM primitives. The TAM approach is evaluated on sizable Id90
     programs on a 64 processor system. The scheduling hierarchy of
     quanta and threads is shown to provide substantial locality while
     tolerating long latencies. This allows the average thread
     scheduling cost to be extremely low.},

  abstract = {The design challenge for large-scale multiprocessors is
     (1) to minimize communication overhead, (2) allow communication
     to overlap computation, and (3) coordinate the two without
     sacrificing processor cost/performance. We show that existing
     message passing multiprocessors have unnecessarily high
     communication costs. Research prototypes of message driven
     machines demonstrate low communication overhead, but poor
     processor cost/performance. We introduce a simple communication
     mechanism, {\em Active Messages}, show that it is intrinsic to
     both architectures, allows cost effective use of the hardware,
     and offers tremendous flexibility. Implementations on nCUBE/2 and
     CM-5 are described and evaluated using a split-phase
     shared-memory extension to C, {\em Split-C}. We further show that
     active messages are sufficient to implement the dynamically
     scheduled languages for which message driven machines were
     designed. With this mechanism, latency tolerance becomes a
     programming/compiling concern. Hardware support for active
     messages is desirable and we outline a range of enhancements to
     mainstream processors.},
